Victoria’s therapeutic approach explores the unconscious forces which influence people’s lives. This helps people to understand and resolve their problems by increasing awareness of their inner world and its influence over relationships both past and present. It aims for deep seated change in personality and emotional development.

In other cases Victoria will help the client to resolve the “here and now” problems and to express thoughts and feelings which are being held or blocked. This can be very useful in situations of crisis management. Overall Victoria is proactive in exploring with the client their past experiences, behavioural patterns and ways of relating with others. She works with the client to develop a different, more appropriate way of dealing with the issues presented.
