About Virginia

Virginia Toole supports people facing grief, anxiety, depression, stress and major life changes. She also helps with relationship worries, addiction concerns, parenting strain, ADHD and work-related stress. She works with those who feel overwhelmed by loss, trauma, chronic illness or the slow changes that leave them unsure of who they are now.

She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where a person can talk through painful feelings at their own pace.

Background and approach

Sessions can be short-term or longer depending on need, with some evening and Saturday appointments available. The tone in sessions is warm and compassionate but focused on practical steps. Virginia uses approaches that centre the person's experience and help them make sense of difficult moments.

She listens closely to what matters to each person and helps them build on their own strengths. Therapy might include gentle guided relaxation, building new stories about past events, or using mindful exercises to steady the mind. Her background includes six years of practice and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

That experience informs a straightforward way of working that mixes emotional support with clear goals. People are helped to recognise patterns, try small changes and measure progress. Sessions are offered online by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.

Virginia aims to match her style to the practical needs of the person, focusing on what will make life more manageable and more meaningful in everyday terms.

Online support

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own experience. The therapist listens without judgement and helps the person find their own solutions, which is useful for anxiety, low mood and life changes. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and improve focus, which can help with worry, stress and coping with chronic illness.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and try methods that match the person's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where adjustments are made as therapy progresses.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful when visual connection helps the conversation. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer writing or need flexibility during the day. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, care commitments and mobility needs, and they increase access for those living farther away from services.
