Viktoria Kirilova
Practical, personalised counselling for everyday struggles
About Viktoria
Viktoria Kirilova is a counsellor who has worked in mental health for five years. She holds BACP accreditation, which she uses to guide her practice. Viktoria aims to meet people where they are and make therapy straightforward and personal.
Her background includes roles across mental health services, giving her experience with a wide range of concerns. She describes her work as integrative, adapting methods to suit each person rather than following a single formula.
Background and approach
Viktoria often focuses on building a strong working relationship so clients feel understood and heard. In sessions she helps people talk through stress, anxiety and depression in simple terms. She also supports those facing trauma and abuse, issues related to identity and sexuality, and difficulties with addictions and eating.
Practical goals such as improving sleep, managing anger, and coping with life changes are part of her day-to-day work. Viktoria uses a mix of conversational and structured approaches to help people make sense of their feelings. She can work with concerns linked to attachment, abandonment, body image and communication problems.
The aim is to find small, realistic steps that fit into everyday life. She offers sessions in English and Bulgarian and works remotely with people in the United Kingdom. People who prefer different formats can choose from video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.
To start, a simple matching questionnaire links people to her practice style and availability.

Approaches and online therapy that fit your life
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The counsellor offers empathic support and follows your lead so you can explore feelings and make choices that feel right for you. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behaviour and uses practical exercises to reduce anxiety, improve mood and change unhelpful habits. Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people process distressing events in a paced way, aiming to reduce their day-to-day impact and improve coping.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with you about your needs, goals and preferences and suggest ways to work together. This is a collaborative process and plans can change as you learn what helps most.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for a face-to-face feel, phone calls are good when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins and messaging lets you share thoughts outside scheduled sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy routines and to use different formats for different tasks.
