About Victoria

Victoria Dann is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with nine years of clinical experience. She works with adults on everyday problems such as stress, anxiety, grief, parenting pressures and anger. She also supports people facing relationship and intimacy issues, career strain, addictions and the strain of raising children.

Victoria uses straightforward talking work. Sessions are practical and focused on what is happening now. She helps people identify patterns, try different responses and build clearer ways to handle frustrating situations at home or at work.

Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thoughts and take actions that match their priorities. She also uses Attachment-Based and Client-Centred ideas to explore how early relationships shape current reactions. Mindfulness techniques are offered to help with stress and strong feelings.

Victoria has experience with a broad range of concerns, including ADHD, body image and communication problems. She also works with people dealing with abandonment, blended family issues, divorce and fertility concerns. Her background includes supporting LGBT clients and those coping with compassion fatigue.

Practical expectations are discussed early on. She asks what you want to change and what has worked before. From there she and the client agree small steps to try between sessions. The focus is on manageable strategies that can make everyday life easier.

Approaches that translate online and how they help

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts and choosing actions that align with personal values. It can help when anger feels automatic and a person wants clearer choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical exercises to test different responses to triggers. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how past relationships shape current reactions and can be useful when anger ties to fears of rejection or feeling unheard.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with the client about goals, try methods and adapt what is used based on how helpful it feels. This is a collaborative process aimed at practical change rather than quick fixes.

The source biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. Many people choose online sessions because they fit around work, reduce travel time and make follow-up easier. Other practical benefits include shorter check-ins when time is limited and the chance to try mindfulness exercises between meetings. Registered or accredited professionals can work with clients internationally, and the focus is on finding ways to fit sessions into everyday life.
