Ways of working Victoria names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

How her approaches work online

Victoria uses Trauma-Focused work to help people who have experienced abuse or distressing events. This approach aims to gently address difficult memories and reduce their impact on daily life through careful pacing and practical coping skills.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to teach ways of noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. ACT helps people choose actions that match their values even when emotions are strong. Attachment-Based ideas are part of the work too, exploring how early relationships shape current patterns and helping people build more supported ways of relating.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person's goals, needs and preferences. This usually starts with an initial conversation and evolves as the client notices what helps them most.

Online work is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for conversational depth and visual connection. Phone can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer writing or need flexible timings. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties or travel, and allow people to continue therapy if they move or live abroad.
