About Victoria
Victoria Martin is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation and brings five years of professional experience to her work. Victoria focuses on helping people who are struggling with stress and anxiety and related life challenges.
She sees many concerns linked to relationships and family life, including parenting pressures and difficulties with communication. People also come to her for support with grief, trauma, addiction, mood issues and self-esteem.
Background and approach
Victoria pays attention to how attachment, body image and isolation can affect everyday coping. In sessions she treats the person as the expert in their own life. Conversations are aimed at making sense of what is causing distress and finding practical steps forward.
She listens for patterns tied to past experience and current relationships, then works with clients to try different ways of responding. Victoria draws on several approaches to shape the work, including client-centred listening, emotionally-focused methods for relationship concerns, and psychodynamic ideas about past experience and patterns. She adapts the way she works to each person's needs and preferences.
Her aim is to support people as they make changes, rebuild confidence and find clearer ways to manage stress and anxiety. Sessions are conversational and focused on realistic steps that can fit into everyday life.
Therapeutic approaches suited to online work
Victoria uses client-centred therapy, which means the focus is on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. This approach helps people clarify their own priorities and discover their strengths. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is used for relationship and attachment concerns; it looks at emotional patterns in close relationships and helps people name and change unhelpful cycles.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Victoria discusses options with each person and makes decisions together based on the client’s goals, needs and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape whether sessions focus more on emotions, past patterns or communication skills.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that is helpful. Phone sessions can suit people who need lower bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging support shorter check-ins, written reflection and more frequent contact between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and other commitments while keeping the focus on progress and problem solving.
