Testimonials

I am proud and pleased to say my clients finish their psychotherapy having made significant shifts in the way they perceive themselves and their world, combined with a profound understanding of how to create and lead extraordinary lives. The testimonials below give you insight to how value adding my services can be to my clients.

I am extremely grateful for Victoria's ability to listen well and pick up on topics that I perhaps didn't know needed exploring. I had some limited beliefs that Victoria helped me identify and work through. We were able to turn some negative thinking that I had about myself into a positive selling point. I would definitely recommend Victoria. I warmed to her instantly because of her open and friendly manner. She is extremely professional and challenges/probes in the right way allowing you to go deeper but in a safe and held way. I found her to be extremely reliable too.

- Linsey

Thank you. I loved every minute. Very thought provoking, motivational and life changing for me…. I would highly recommend Victoria as a psychotherapist for many reasons. She is very friendly and professional, and put me at ease from the first session. Victoria's method of therapy is very non-telling, non-judgmental and really helped me to explore my own ideas to find the best way of doing things. I was able to break my thoughts down into workable chunks, set deadlines and targets for my own use and learn what motivates me in the best way. The thought-provoking way in which Victoria runs her sessions enabled me to dive deeply into my own thoughts in a manageable and realistic way.

- Helen

I would like to say a massive thank-you to Victoria who has literally changed my life. Your counsel, patience and ability to challenge me has rewired my whole brain.

- Charlotte

So happy with my experience. Victoria has been wonderful. Being able to talk openly and process my troubles, with Victoria listening and supporting, has been life altering.

- Belinda

Victoria was engaged, a very keen listener and encouraged me to explore some of the underlying reasons for my anxiety. She was able to draw on a broad spectrum of disciplines to deliver a wholistic approach. She is personable and easy to speak to. She is not judgemental and comes across as a warm and caring person which provides a supportive backdrop to facilitate an open and honest reflection.
