About Victoria
Victoria Postles helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and big life changes. She supports those coping with relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, trauma and abuse, ADHD, and career or anger-related problems. Victoria works to make difficult feelings easier to understand and manage.
Victoria is a BACP counsellor with five years of practice. She offers short- and longer-term work that focuses on recognising patterns and building practical ways to respond differently.
How Victoria works
Sessions are conversational and warm, not clinical or rushed. The aim is to leave with clearer choices and small, useful changes to try between meetings. Her style draws on client-centred ideas to put the person’s priorities first.
She also uses existential thinking to tackle questions about meaning and life direction. Narrative techniques help people retell difficult experiences so those stories stop defining every choice. In a session Victoria helps people name repeating thoughts and behaviours, notice where they come from, and experiment with new responses.
She pays attention to how relationships and past experiences shape present difficulties. Work often includes practical steps, reflection, and exploring emotional reactions. People who come to Victoria often want steadier moods, clearer relationships, or help coping with loss and change.
She offers a calm presence and straightforward tools to reduce overwhelm and build more workable daily routines. Her approach is collaborative and paced to each person’s comfort.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person without judgement. It helps people feel heard, name what matters most, and decide on steps they want to try to feel better.Existential Therapy looks at meaning, values, and life choices. It is useful when someone feels stuck, unsure of direction, or is facing big life changes and wants clearer purpose or choice.
Narrative Therapy helps people separate themselves from painful stories they repeat. By re-authoring those stories, people can try different behaviours and see new possibilities for relationships and daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to identify which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative exploration can shift over time as needs change.
Online therapy makes sessions more flexible and easier to fit into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions are good for lower bandwidth or when a shorter check-in is needed, and live chat or text messaging suit quick reflections or people who prefer typing. These formats help people access steady, ongoing support without frequent travel and make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, family and other commitments.
