How Vicky’s Approaches Work Online

Vicky uses client-centered therapy to focus on what matters most to each person, offering a listening style that follows the client’s priorities and strengths. This approach helps when someone needs a safe place to make sense of their feelings and goals.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. CBT can help with anxiety, low mood, and day-to-day habits by testing small behavioral experiments and reframing unhelpful thoughts.

Motivational interviewing is used when someone wants to strengthen their motivation for change. It involves open questions and reflective listening to help people find their own reasons to move forward rather than being told what to do.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will listen to your concerns and goals, then suggest methods to try together. This is a collaborative process and can shift over time based on what helps most.

Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is useful for deeper conversations, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat or text works well for quick check-ins or shorter exchanges. These options make scheduling more flexible and help therapy fit into busy lives.
