You're a high-functioning woman with big dreams, dee emotions, a brilliant, busy mind that never stops and a sensitive soul. You find the world overwhelming at times and don't know how others seem to do it with ease. You're curious about your inner world, self-reflection and nurturing your inner child. I'd love to help you get back your emotional well-being while valuing your sensitivity. I work in a unique guided, somatic way that will guide you in-wards to a compassionate journey to meet all parts of you. We'd work well together if you think CBT/ talk therapy only scratched the surface and you're ready to go deeper.

I work with highly sensitive people who struggle with intense emotions and their aftermath. Sometimes they may feel like they are feeling everything, all at once, at other times nothing at all. They may have experienced a big trauma, or lots of little ones. My clients come to learn how to navigate the emotional highs and lows, be a better friend and partner (and find better friends and partners) and overcome their difficulties to build a life that is meaningful and rich to them. I work with adolescents and their families and adults of all ages. I also work with carers (family and friends) of people with mental health challenges.

Hi, I'm Victoria and I'd like to help you work through this difficult time. It’s not easy reaching out so I’m pleased you are making the first steps. I have a background in both Social Work and Counselling which is helpful as I can draw from both disciplines to best support you. I started my career in the UK as a Children and Families Social Worker and have since gained a broad range of experience in the therapeutic field including trauma, mental health, family, and relationship-based issues.

Hi there. I want you to take a deep breath in- hold- and an even longer breath out now. Well done on finding your way here. If you have done therapy before -welcome back! If its your first time, well done on being so courageous. Id love to say therapy is easy- but its not. It may very well be one of the hardest things you do in your life. BUT it might be a little easier than the struggle you have been living with so far. You might have come here feeling broken- rather than that, perhaps you are actually stuck. Effective therapy is largely based on human relationship so we will start by getting to know each other.
