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
Victoria's style is collaborative. She will work with each person to decide which ways of working suit them best, combining gentle reflection with practical conversation. Choosing the right approach is something you do together, based on your goals and preferences.
Online sessions are available as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful when visual contact helps the conversation, phone sessions can be better when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for shorter check-ins and messaging can fit around busy days. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, home and daily life while keeping the focus on what you want to address.
