About Victoria

Victoria Dann is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with nine years of experience. She creates a warm, respectful space where people can talk about stress, anxiety, grief and life changes. Her approach is simple and human - she listens closely and helps clients find practical ways forward that fit their lives.

Victoria believes therapy should feel collaborative. She does not try to ‘fix’ people; instead she walks alongside them while they make sense of difficult feelings and decisions. Sessions are tailored to each person’s situation and priorities.

Her work often focuses on everyday challenges such as parenting strain, low self-esteem, difficulties with relationships and intimacy, and managing anger. She also supports people dealing with addiction, career pressures, compassion fatigue and ADHD-related concerns. Victoria pays attention to attachment and relationship patterns that shape how people cope.

In sessions she draws on a few well-established methods to guide practical change and self-understanding. These approaches include acceptance and commitment ideas, cognitive techniques to shift unhelpful thoughts and a client-centred stance that keeps the person’s concerns central.

People can expect a straightforward, calm style and an emphasis on small, achievable steps. Victoria aims to help clients build skills they can use between sessions while also exploring the emotional roots of recurring problems. If someone wants to begin, the profile explains how to match with her and book a session.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and situations that feel stuck. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and teaches practical skills to challenge unhelpful patterns. It suits problems like stress, anxiety and anger where concrete strategies are helpful. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns influence present reactions and relationships, and it can help when repeated relational difficulties or trust issues are present.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Victoria will discuss different methods and tailor the mix to a person’s needs, goals and preferences. That decision is made together, and approaches may be adjusted as the work progresses.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare and other commitments, and it can reduce travel time. It also allows for flexible ways to check in between appointments if that is helpful for the person’s progress.
