About Victoria

Victoria Wilkinson works with parents and carers who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem or big life changes. She supports people managing grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, addictions, sleep or eating difficulties, and the everyday strain of parenting. Victoria also helps clients facing trauma, anger, career questions, ADHD and compassion fatigue.

Victoria uses straightforward, conversational counselling. She aims to make sessions calm and practical. Conversations focus on what is happening now and what can be done next.

Background and approach

Her style is warm and collaborative rather than formal or prescriptive. Her approach draws on several well-known methods. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people live with difficult thoughts and feelings while moving toward what matters.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps spot and shift unhelpful thinking patterns. Attachment-based ideas are used to look at how early relationships affect current connections. Victoria holds NCPS, which appears with her name as a professional credential.

She has three years of clinical experience working in the United Kingdom. Sessions are offered in English and are provided online by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. People usually start by sharing a simple goal they want to work on.

Victoria then tailors sessions to those aims, balancing practical strategies with space to reflect on deeper patterns. She encourages gradual change and realistic steps that fit daily life.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches you can access online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and still move toward what matters to them. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood, stress and parenting-related worries by focusing on values and small action steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, helps identify thinking patterns that keep problems going and teaches practical techniques to change those patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current connections and communication, which can help with intimacy-related issues and relationship difficulties.

Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist works collaboratively to find methods that match a person's goals, preferences and day-to-day life. Together they try different ways of working and adjust plans as progress is made or priorities change.

Online therapy here is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is an issue. Live chat or text messaging suit brief check-ins, written reflections or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and busy schedules while keeping the focus on practical progress.
