About Victoria
Victoria Postles works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression and relationship strain. She also helps those coping with life changes, parenting pressures, trauma and anger, as well as career stress and compassion fatigue. Her practice includes support for ADHD and a wide range of related issues such as attachment, body image and chronic illness concerns.
Victoria is based in the United Kingdom and is registered with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
Background and approach
She uses a warm, person-focused style in sessions. Conversations centre on what matters most to the client and aim to make recurring patterns clearer. That clarity often makes it easier to choose different responses in day-to-day life.
Sessions are gentle but practical, with attention to feelings as well as actions. Victoria draws on client-centred, existential and narrative approaches in her work. She invites people to tell their story, look at the meaning they give to events and, where helpful, consider new ways of being.
The emphasis is on collaboration rather than expert instruction, so the pace and focus are shaped by the person in front of her. Over five years she has developed a concise, accessible way of supporting change. Her background includes a variety of mental health settings and charities, which inform a calm and relational style.
Clients can expect straightforward conversations that balance emotional exploration with real-world steps. Practical needs are discussed early on, including session format and how therapy will fit into daily life. Victoria aims to help people build self-compassion, clearer choices and sustainable change over time.

Approaches Victoria lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods best suit their needs and goals. That may mean trying different ways of working and adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer to write, want ongoing brief contact, or need to fit therapy around busy routines. These formats make it easier to attend sessions from different locations and to find an arrangement that fits daily life.
