About Victoria
Victoria Gonticas is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief and low mood. She supports those struggling with self-esteem, workplace issues and career uncertainty. Victoria works to create a respectful, sensitive space where people can talk about what matters to them.
She trained in the UK as an Integrative Therapist and has three years of professional experience. Victoria adapts conversations and plans to each person’s needs rather than using one fixed method. In sessions she focuses on helping people understand emotional patterns and make practical changes that fit their life.
Her work often draws on attachment ideas to look at how early relationships influence current connections. She also uses client-centred ways of working that put the person’s experience at the heart of the session. For relationship concerns she may bring in emotionally-focused or Gottman-informed perspectives to support clearer communication and emotional repair.
Victoria pays attention to issues such as abandonment, guilt, isolation and intimacy difficulties. She also supports people dealing with divorce, non-monogamous relationship questions, midlife change and women’s issues. Conversations may combine reflection about past patterns with steps to improve day-to-day life.
She aims to be practical and compassionate, helping people find clearer priorities and small actions they can try between sessions. If you are thinking about therapy, Victoria encourages a first step of honest dialogue to see if her way of working feels like a good match.
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and emotional responses. Online sessions using this approach can help people recognise repeated patterns and practise new ways of relating to others and themselves.Client-Centred Therapy puts the person's experience first and values empathy, acceptance and active listening. In an online setting this often means the counsellor follows the client's pace, reflecting feelings and priorities so the client feels understood and can choose the direction of work.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on emotions in close relationships and aims to help partners or individuals identify and change unhelpful interaction cycles. When used in online conversations, it supports clearer emotional expression and helps people try different communication steps between sessions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which methods match the client's needs, goals and preferences, and will adjust the plan as progress is made.
For practical matters, please confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow sessions from more convenient locations. Some people find shorter check-ins or audio-only meetings helpful when video is not suitable, and others prefer the full visual experience for relationship work. The therapist will discuss what format suits each person's circumstances.
