Background and approach

Victoria listens, reflects what she hears and helps clients name what they want to be different. She aims to help people spot small changes they can try between sessions. Victoria has over 23 years of experience in education settings and counselling.

She holds a Level 4 Advanced Diploma in Integrative Counselling and an MSc in Practical Skills Therapeutic Education. She is also undertaking PhD studies with the University of Exeter and holds a PGCE in Secondary Education with Qualified Teacher Status. Her listed professional registrations include BACP and NCPS.

She also holds an Enhanced DBS. These are part of her documented background and oversight. Victoria provides sessions in English from the United Kingdom.

Sessions are collaborative and paced to the individual. People often bring practical problems, emotional pain or uncertainty about next steps. Victoria combines a client-centred approach with practical coaching to help people move towards clearer goals and improved day-to-day coping.

Client-centred work adapted for online care

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding your experience from your point of view. The therapist listens without directing and helps you name what matters most, which can help with issues like anxiety, grief and low self-esteem.

Victoria also blends practical coaching into sessions when helpful, focusing on small steps and skills to try between meetings. That tends to suit people who want both emotional support and clear, actionable ideas for daily life.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and together decide what to try first. This is a collaborative process and can change as progress is made.

Online sessions can be easier to fit into a busy week. Video calls let you see each other and work face to face from different locations. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be a good short check-in. Live chat or text-based messaging can suit people who prefer typing or want brief, frequent support. These options aim to make therapy flexible and accessible while matching style to practical life demands.
