Victoria Postles

Victoria Postles is a counsellor who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression. She helps people cope with life changes, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strain, trauma and abuse, and challenges linked to ADHD. Victoria also works with concerns such as anger, career pressures and compassion fatigue. She is named on the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy register (BACP).

Victoria uses a calm, relational style in sessions. She focuses on understanding repeating patterns in thoughts, feelings and behaviour. That helps people make different choices and respond less automatically. Sessions aim to turn insight into practical changes that improve daily life.

Her approach is integrative rather than one-size-fits-all. She draws on client-centred ideas, existential thinking and narrative work to suit each person’s history and needs. The emphasis is on a supportive relationship where people can explore difficult feelings and try out new ways of relating.

Victoria has five years of experience in direct therapeutic practice and wider experience across mental health settings and charities. She has particular experience supporting people affected by coercive or controlling relationships and by pregnancy and infant loss.

People who come to her often want help recognising blind spots, accessing core emotions and gently unravelling the stuck patterns that hold them back. Her aim is to work at a pace that feels safe, to build self-compassion, and to support realistic, lasting change.

How her approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the relationship between counsellor and client. It puts the person’s experience at the centre and aims to build trust and understanding. This approach helps when someone needs acceptance and a chance to make sense of their feelings.

Existential Therapy looks at meaning, choice and identity in life. It helps people facing big transitions, loss, or questions about who they are. Therapy using this lens supports honest reflection about values and the decisions that follow.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and help decide which methods fit best. This is a collaborative process that can change as needs evolve.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by removing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to use a waiting room or who find it simpler to meet from their usual environment.

Registered or accredited professionals often offer online work in ways that support continuity of care and practical access.
