Narrative Therapy in this listing

Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.

If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Victoria directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.

Online session options

How Narrative and ACT methods work in online care

Victoria uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe the stories they tell about themselves, relationships, and past events so they can choose different paths forward. This approach is useful for relationship concerns, identity questions, and coping after loss or change.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, and then clarify personal values to guide meaningful action. ACT often helps with anxiety, stress, addiction, and motivation to change.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Victoria works with each person to see which techniques fit their goals and preferences. Together they try different ideas and decide what helps most in day-to-day life.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule. Video calls let people maintain face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth or visual focus is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging support shorter check-ins, ongoing coaching, or when someone prefers typing to talking. All formats aim to make counseling practical and accessible for the client's routine.
