About Victoria

Victoria Gonticas is a counsellor who helps people struggling with stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. She also supports people facing grief, low self-esteem, career challenges and feelings of isolation or loneliness. Victoria offers a calm, respectful space where clients can talk through what matters most to them.

She trained in the UK and has three years of professional experience working with a range of emotional concerns. Her work is integrative, which means she draws on different approaches to suit each person. Sessions are tailored to an individual's needs rather than following a fixed formula.

Victoria keeps things straightforward in sessions. She listens closely, reflects what she hears and helps people identify small, practical steps they can try between meetings. Conversations focus on what is happening now and patterns that may be keeping difficulties in place.

When relationship or attachment issues come up, she uses methods that focus on emotional connection and improving communication. For people dealing with grief or life changes, she offers space to name loss and consider new directions. Career and workplace concerns are explored with attention to values and next steps.

Her approach is warm and collaborative. Victoria aims to empower clients to make informed choices and build more satisfying relationships with others and themselves. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange sessions based on availability.

Approaches that translate to online counselling

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape feelings and reactions. It helps people understand attachment patterns and build more secure ways of relating to others.

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person's experience at the heart of the work. The therapist provides empathic listening and reflects back what is said so clients can find their own ways forward.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at emotions in the moment and how they guide interactions. It is often used when improving emotional connection and communication is a goal.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals and preferences and then try approaches that fit those needs. This is a collaborative conversation and plans can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

If you are considering online work, please confirm current session options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow people to meet from wherever they are located. It can also make shorter check-ins or telephone conversations simpler when that suits a person's day. Ask about available formats when you complete the matching questionnaire so arrangements match your schedule and needs.
