About Victoria
Victoria Dann is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with nine years of professional experience. She centres her work on building a warm, listening relationship and helping people feel heard. Victoria believes clients know their own lives best and she aims to walk alongside them while they make changes.
Her day-to-day approach is straightforward and practical. She helps people talk through stress and anxiety, cope with grief and loss, and manage life transitions.
Background and approach
She also supports people with self-esteem, parenting concerns, addiction, compassion fatigue and aspects of identity including LGBT issues. Victoria uses a mix of methods to suit each person. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to challenge unhelpful thinking, and Mindfulness to build calm focus.
Attachment-based and client-centred ideas guide how she builds trust and responds to each person. Sessions are shaped around what the client needs that week. Some people work on short-term goals like coping with a job change.
Others use therapy to process longer-term patterns such as attachment or relationship difficulties. Victoria adapts pacing and techniques to fit the situation. She works with people navigating family problems, intimacy issues, body image and related concerns such as codependency, communication problems and abandonment worries.
She is also experienced with autism and ADHD related topics and with fertility and parenting strains. Victoria is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, practises in English, and offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging for people inside and outside the UK.
Approaches that suit online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps towards those values. It is useful for anxiety, stress and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and building new coping skills for problems such as anxiety and low self-esteem. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm, which many people find helpful alongside talking work.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and try different techniques so the plan fits your needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made along the way if something does not feel helpful.
Online sessions can include video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video lets you use visual cues in conversation, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited or a check-in is needed, and messaging suits shorter updates or ongoing support between sessions. These options give flexibility to fit work, family life and different rhythms of everyday routine.
