About Victoria

Victoria Wilkinson is a counsellor who helps people coping with stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. She also supports people facing relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strain, changes in career or life, and concerns like addiction, ADHD and grief. Victoria works with a wide range of emotional and practical worries linked to self-esteem, sleep, eating and chronic illness. Victoria believes counselling is a practical, collaborative process. She aims to create space for people to talk, reflect and try new ways of responding to difficult feelings. Sessions focus on what is getting in the way now and on small steps that can make daily life more manageable. Conversations are guided by the person’s goals and situation rather than a set script. Her approach mixes several recognised methods including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment-Based techniques. These methods are used to help people notice unhelpful patterns, build coping skills and strengthen relationships with themselves and others. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and client-centred ideas also inform her work when emotion regulation or deeper listening is needed. Victoria has three years of professional experience and holds NCPS as a credential. She works from the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. She does not take international clients at this time. Fees vary with location and the service model used, and sessions are provided via a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session according to the therapist’s availability. This helps match people to a counsellor whose style fits their needs.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings and committing to actions that reflect personal values. It is useful when someone wants to reduce avoidance and live a fuller life despite ongoing challenges. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns; it often suits anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current bonds and helps people understand and shift patterns in close relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals and preferences, and together they will choose which methods to use. That choice may change as therapy progresses, and decisions are made collaboratively rather than imposed.

Confirm the specific online session options before booking to know what formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare or health limitations. They can allow a shorter check-in on busy days, reduce travel time, and let people join from a place that is more convenient. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises, worksheets and behavioural tasks for remote sessions so progress can continue between meetings.
