Victoria Ringo LCSW-C
I am in a small group practice (three clinicians) and I am the sole provider whose specialties include OCD. I have treated a total of three clients during my time with this practice (<2 years.) Prior to this practice I worked and/or collaborated on two other cases of children with OCD.
Over the past two years, I’ve collaborated with an OCD specialist in treating children and young adults, attended and am continuing to attend multiple trainings focused on pediatric OCD, including approaches in ERP, CBT, and ACT. During this time I’ve had three pediatric clients with OCD. Following my BTTI attendance and subsequent supervision, I am seeing a child with OCD (contamination and scrupulosity), and am letting referral sources know that I am available to take new clients with OCD diagnoses.
I have had ample experience in my 20 years of social work practice working with individuals of color, a variety ethic backgrounds, members of the LGBTQIA+ community and their families & allies, religious backgrounds and beliefs. While my primary focus is children, I have also worked with adults, geriatrics, and in hospice care.
Cultural Competency is a requirement for licensure in Maryland. I completed this requirement in 10/2024.
