Meet Vikki

COUNSELLOR / OWNER

Experience

Hi, I’m Vikki – a dedicated counsellor and educator with over two decades of experience walking alongside adults and young people through life’s challenges. I have successfully supported countless individuals and couples on their journey toward healing, clarity, and personal growth.

My work is grounded in compassion and collaboration. I believe that by fostering deeper self-understanding and building a safe therapeutic relationship, real and lasting change becomes possible. Using a variety of evidence-based techniques, I help clients gain insight, build resilience, and move forward with purpose.

Qualifications & Approach

I am a fully accredited Counsellor, Hypnotherapist, EMDR and Brainspotting therapist, as well as a qualified Trauma Informed and Anger Management therapist. I am trained in the Gottman Method for couples therapy, which allows me to work effectively with individuals and relationships alike.

Whether you're navigating anxiety, anger, relationship breakdown, trauma, burnout, or simply feeling stuck – I will meet you with warmth, acceptance, and a plan tailored just for you. Together, we’ll create a safe and open space where you can explore your concerns, feel heard, and begin to build the life you truly want.

Working with Me

I have developed and deliver a specialised anger management program that equips clients with the tools to understand, manage, and respond to anger in healthier ways. Through my structured, therapeutic approach, clients learn to identify their triggers, regulate intense emotions, and communicate more effectively.

People often state they feel genuinely seen and supported in their therapy. By placing the client at the centre of each session, I ensure that their concerns are the primary focus. Whether you’re looking to manage anger, stress, improve couple/relationship dynamics, dealing with work related issues or simply feeling better day-to-day, I am here to guide and support you.
