Background and approach
Her background includes work with sexual assault and incest trauma within clinical services. Her approach centres on a client-centred style that prioritises the person’s own pace and choices. Attachment-based ideas inform how she thinks about relationships and patterns that repeat over time.
She also draws on narrative and solution-focused techniques to help people tell their story differently and find practical next steps. Clients can expect sessions that are calm and straightforward. Vicky pays attention to cultural differences and welcomes people from diverse backgrounds.
She aims to make the work relevant to everyday life, whether the focus is grief, parenting stress, addictions, or career pressures. Sessions are available via a range of online formats and are organised through a subscription model. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability.

Sessions & fees
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Attachment-based work focuses on relationship patterns and how early connections affect current feelings. Online sessions can help people notice repeated patterns in friendships or romantic relationships and practise different responses in real time.Client-centred therapy places emphasis on the person's own goals and choices. In this way of working the counsellor listens closely and reflects what matters to the client, helping them arrive at their own solutions for stress, grief or self-esteem issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the journey and the therapist will work collaboratively to decide what fits best. This often means trying ideas from different models so the work stays practical and relevant to the client's goals and preferences.
Online formats offer greater flexibility for people juggling work, family or health commitments. Video calls let the therapist and client use visual cues and develop rapport. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a short break. Live chat or text messaging allow regular check-ins and brief reflections between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting around daily life.
