About Victoria
Victoria Wren is a counsellor registered with the BACP and NCPS and has 23 years' experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, addictions, relationship and family concerns, anger and related difficulties. Sessions are client-led and paced to the individual.
Victoria listens without judgement and aims to understand each person’s view of their situation. She encourages people to name what they want to change and to take decisions about what to bring to sessions. The therapist stresses that the client remains in charge of what they share and how quickly they move.
Her background includes an Advanced Diploma in Integrative Counselling, an MSc in Practical Skills Therapeutic Education, and a PGCE for secondary education. She is also undertaking PhD studies with the University of Exeter and holds an Enhanced DBS.
In practice she uses a client-centred approach that focuses on the person’s experience in the moment. That means listening, reflecting and helping people to find their own solutions rather than prescribing steps. This method can suit people dealing with anger, loss, anxiety or life transitions.
Victoria has worked for over two decades in education settings and with a wide age range. She draws on that experience when discussing parenting, career stress, communication problems and related pressures. People can expect straightforward, paced conversations aimed at practical understanding and change.
How Victoria uses client-centred work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. The therapist reflects what is said, helps clarify feelings, and supports the client in deciding what to try next. This approach can be useful for anger, anxiety, grief and relationship-related concerns where exploring personal perspective matters.Victoria also draws on her background in therapeutic education to offer practical skill-building conversations. That can include noticing how patterns show up in daily life and trying small changes to reduce tension or improve communication. These conversations are paced to the client's needs and preferences and aim to be collaborative rather than directive.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Victoria will help clients and counsellors agree what methods to try based on the client’s goals and what feels manageable. She treats that as a shared process which can be reviewed and adjusted over time.
Please confirm the available session options before booking, as formats are not listed in her biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, allow a shorter check-in during a work break, or remove the need to travel. Discuss practical arrangements with her when you schedule the first meeting.
