About Oak Tree Counseling
Oak Tree Counseling provides warm, evidence based therapy for young adults and adults who are navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship patterns, and emotional overwhelm. Our goal is to offer a space that feels steady, real, and supportive from the moment you reach out.
Therapy here is conversational and collaborative. You set the pace and direction. Your therapist walks beside you, asking thoughtful questions and offering tools that help you move toward the life you want.
About
Vicky Dias-Nunes, LPC
Founder and Licensed Professional Counselor
Vicky has been in the field since 2016 and has worked in a wide range of settings including family counseling, university counseling, substance use treatment, and private practice. She opened Oak Tree Counseling in 2023 to create a space where people feel supported, challenged, and genuinely cared for.
Clients describe Vicky as compassionate, direct, and honest. She is a straight shooter who will encourage you, cheer for you, ask the hard questions, and help you understand what is happening beneath the surface. Her work is grounded in approaches such as CBT, ACT, mindfulness, interpersonal therapy, motivational interviewing, and person centered care.
She specializes in anxiety, panic, depression, ADHD, life transitions, adult children of emotionally immature parents, relationship challenges, boundary setting, prenatal and postpartum anxiety or depression, and emotional regulation.
Our Philosophy
Therapy is a journey and you are in the driver’s seat. You choose the pace. You decide the direction. Vicky is there with the map, offering insight and guidance that helps you get where you want to go. Growth takes time, curiosity, and support. You deserve a space where you can be yourself and feel understood as you work toward real and lasting change.
“I’m here to support you and challenge you. You’re in the driver’s seat, and I’m in the passenger seat with the map, asking the questions that help you understand yourself and move toward real change.”
