Victoria Wilkinson , NCPS

Victoria Wilkinson is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, self-esteem struggles and relationship concerns. She supports people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, and issues around intimacy and sexuality. She also works with clients on sleep and eating problems, career worries, parenting strains and neurodiverse presentations such as ADHD and autism. Victoria holds NCPS as a listed credential and works from the United Kingdom.

Victoria uses a down-to-earth, person-centred way of working. Sessions focus on what matters to the client right now. She listens without judgement and helps people notice patterns that make life harder. Practical steps and small experiments are used alongside reflective conversation.

Her approach draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to challenge unhelpful thoughts and build new coping skills. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy techniques are used to help people clarify values and take action despite difficult feelings. Attachment-based ideas inform work on relationship patterns and intimacy concerns.

Victoria aims for a collaborative process. She helps clients set clear, manageable goals and reviews progress regularly. Therapy can be short-term to meet a specific problem or longer if deeper exploration is needed.

Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to fit different needs. Conversations are kept straightforward and focused, with practical tools to try between meetings. If someone wants to start, they complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session according to the therapist's availability.

How specific approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, value-driven steps even when feelings are hard. It is useful for anxiety, stress, low mood and when life transitions make choices feel confusing.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It involves noticing unhelpful thinking, testing beliefs and practising new skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood and improve sleep.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss these methods with the client and together decide which fits best based on needs, goals and preferences. That process is collaborative and reviewed over time to make sure the approach still suits the person's situation.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video is helpful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat suits short check-ins or people who prefer not to use video. These options give flexibility to fit therapy around work, caregiving or other commitments while keeping the focus on practical progress and skills practice.
