Victoria Postles, BACP

Victoria Postles is a counsellor who supports people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self‑esteem, depression and life changes. She also helps with relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, intimacy concerns, parenting strain, anger, career issues, compassion fatigue and ADHD. Victoria works in a straightforward, relational way to help people make sense of problems and take practical steps forward.

She brings five years of clinical experience and holds BACP registration, and she works with adults on emotional and relational challenges. Sessions focus on understanding repeating patterns and building awareness so people can respond rather than react. The tone is calm and collaborative rather than directive.

Victoria uses client-centred, existential and narrative approaches to tailor therapy to each person. That means listening closely to someone’s story, helping them notice what matters, and exploring choices and values that feel authentic. Therapy sessions aim to turn insight into small, doable changes that improve day-to-day life.

Her background includes supporting people through bereavement, chronic health and caregiving stress, attachment and abandonment concerns, and issues that arise from long‑term relational difficulties. She also works with people affected by autism and with those experiencing body image or identity questions.

People can expect reflective conversation, practical coping strategies and help to reframe difficult narratives. The emphasis is on creating a steady, supportive relationship where change can happen at a manageable pace.

How her approaches translate to online work

Victoria draws on client-centred and narrative methods alongside existential ideas. Client‑centred work emphasises listening closely and reflecting what matters to the person, which helps when someone feels unheard or stuck. Narrative work focuses on the stories people tell about themselves and looks for alternative ways to frame difficulties and strengths. Existential therapy helps people clarify values and choices when they feel adrift or face big life changes.

Choosing an approach is usually collaborative. Victoria will talk with each person about what feels most helpful and adapt techniques as the work progresses. The aim is to match method to the person’s goals and preferences rather than impose a single model.

If you are considering online therapy, check which session formats are currently offered before booking since the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work or caregiving responsibilities, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check‑ins when needed. Many people find that conversational, story‑based and values work transfers well to remote sessions, and the therapist will discuss practical arrangements and pacing with you at the start.
