About Me

I am privileged to have been trained in EMDR and AF-EMDR by senior clinicians who are protégés of Dr Francine Shapiro (who discovered and researched the modality in the 1980s).  I am grateful to be able to be part of Dr Shapiros legacy and vision to help as many clients as possible overcome their difficulties with EMDR. The demands of modern life can be overwhelming, difficult to navigate and at times, lonely. Even more so when trauma, anxiety and depression are weighing down the brain, body and soul. Having someone who ‘meets you’ non-judgementally and bears witness to whatever is presented can be liberating and deeply meaningful. My work is in EMDR and Integrative Psychotherapy and I aim to facilitate a healing process for clients with PTSD and trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, early and recent abuse and many other challenges. I offer practical calming strategies to take away and feel a sense of ease between sessions. I work with adults, adolescents, children and babies and welcome clients from all backgrounds. I can work short term with EMDR and short or longer-term with Integrative Psychotherapy. I use play and the arts where appropriate. I can work online or in person. My therapy room is in a self-contained wooden cabin and is a private and quiet environment that offers a feeling of safety. From a client: “Since doing the EMDR work with Victoria I can honestly say that I have felt confident to bring up and work through some of my deepest secrets, insecurities and traumas. I have gone from using dissociation and anger to mask my problems, to face them head on, allowing my body and mind to process my experiences. This has given me confidence in myself, shown me what self care looks like, given me a safe space to open up and heal some old wounds and encourage me to make rational choices within irrational moments. I honestly can not thank Victoria enough for how far she has bought me, and giving me the resources and self regulating skills that I have learnt throughout the healing journey. “ EMDR Therapy Fees: £100 per hour (typical sessions last 2h) Initial 50 minute consultation: £50
