Therapeutic approaches and online support
Victoria commonly uses Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Internal Family Systems in her work. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationship patterns shape feelings of safety and closeness and is often useful for relationship challenges, abandonment concerns, and attachment-related anxiety. Client-Centered Therapy places the client at the center of the process, offering empathic listening and support to help people explore their own goals and build self-understanding, which can be helpful for stress, low self-esteem, and life transitions. Internal Family Systems offers a way to understand and work with different parts of the self - for example protective, vulnerable, or critical parts - and can help with trauma responses, addictive patterns, and internal conflict.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Victoria works collaboratively to assess what fits a person’s needs, goals, and preferences and adjusts methods over time so the work remains relevant and effective for each individual.
Online therapy with Victoria is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access support from home or while travelling, and they allow sessions to be shaped around what works best for the client and the therapeutic goals.
