About Victoria
Her style is person-centred and warm. She begins from the belief that the client knows their own life best. Sessions are collaborative and paced to match the person’s needs rather than rushing toward instant change.
Victoria blends talk therapy with creative exercises. This can include drawing, guided visualisation and breathwork alongside conversation. These options are used to help people reconnect with feelings and find new ways of coping.
She draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat over time, and on Internal Family Systems to notice the different parts of a person’s inner life. Together these approaches help with issues such as attachment, abandonment, shame, impulsivity and difficulty trusting oneself.
Sessions are intended to be a steady place to process painful events and to build self-compassion. Victoria encourages people to take the first small step and to use therapy at a pace that feels manageable. If you want to explore how she might help, the initial step is to begin the matching and scheduling process so you can discuss your situation.

How these approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and responding to what the person says, aiming to build trust and a clearer sense of direction. It works well for feelings of low self-worth, depression, anxiety and for people needing a steady, accepting space.Psychodynamic work pays attention to patterns and past experiences that keep repeating. It can help people understand why certain reactions and relationship difficulties keep coming up, and slowly make different choices.
Internal Family Systems helps people notice and speak with the different parts inside them - for example, protective parts, guilty parts, or vulnerable parts. This approach can be useful for issues like shame, impulsivity, abandonment worries and attachment concerns.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods feel most helpful, adjusting the mix as goals and needs become clearer. Clients are encouraged to give feedback so sessions stay practical and relevant.
The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so please confirm available formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed and enable creative practices such as guided visualisation and breathwork from wherever is convenient.
