Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
EnglishHi, I’m Victoria, welcome! I work with adults who often feel unsure in their relationships or struggle with self-esteem. Maybe you find yourself second-guessing, giving more than you get back, or wondering if you really matter. In our work together, we’ll slow things down, make sense of these patterns, and begin building confidence, clarity, and a stronger relationship with yourself.
Background
I’m a Registered Psychotherapist (Q), and my focus is supporting adults with self-worth, anxiety, and relationship challenges. I use approaches like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy, blending them in a way that fits your needs. I care about getting to know what feels hard for you while also noticing the strengths you already bring. My hope is that therapy feels like a partnership—where you can feel safe, respected, and supported as you explore what’s been holding you back.
Your therapeutic experience with me
When you sit with me, you can expect a space that feels calm, thoughtful, and collaborative. I listen closely, ask gentle questions, and help you connect the dots between your experiences and the patterns that show up today. Sometimes our work may focus on untangling old stories; other times it may be on building practical skills for confidence and connection. My clients often tell me they leave sessions feeling lighter, clearer, and more able to trust themselves in their relationships and daily lives.
Therapeutic approaches
These are the approaches at the heart of my work, and I use them often because they help create meaningful change:
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
CBT helps us look at the link between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. If anxiety or self-doubt often takes over, CBT can give us practical tools to challenge unhelpful thinking patterns and build more balanced, supportive ways of responding—so you can feel more grounded day to day.
Narrative Therapy
Narrative therapy invites us to look at the stories you’ve carried about yourself—like being “not enough” or “too much”—and notice where they came from. Together, we explore how those stories shaped your self-esteem and relationships, while also opening space to rewrite them in ways that feel truer
Psychodynamic Therapy
Psychodynamic therapy helps us explore the deeper patterns and early experiences that quietly shape how you see yourself and relate to others. By bringing these unconscious dynamics into awareness, we can untangle what’s been keeping you stuck and create new ways of relating that feel more authentic
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
ACT focuses on building a different relationship with difficult thoughts and feelings. Instead of fighting them, we practice making space for them while staying connected to what really matters to you. This approach is especially helpful for anxiety and low mood, supporting you in living with more c
