About Victoria
Victoria "Vicky" Leithes is a counsellor with nine years of experience working in the United Kingdom. She trained in person-centred counselling in 2012 and uses a client-focused way of working to help people find clearer direction. Vicky aims to create a calm space where people feel heard and respected as they talk through difficult issues.
She often supports people dealing with stress and anxiety, and those coping with depression or addictions.
Background and approach
She has helped people navigate trauma, abuse, and bereavement, and works with concerns such as low self-esteem, panic attacks and codependency. Vicky also offers assistance around relationship strain, parenting challenges and managing big life changes. Her practice centres on listening without judgement and following each person’s pace.
Conversations focus on what the person wants to change and on practical steps that can make daily life feel more manageable. Sessions are guided by the client’s needs rather than a fixed agenda. Vicky works in English and provides therapy remotely by video, phone, live chat or messaging.
She uses a subscription model for sessions which can be cancelled at any time and notes that fees vary by location and therapist availability. People usually begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling sessions. Vicky aims to be a steady presence while someone explores their next steps and builds confidence in coping with challenges.

Approaches Victoria lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Vicky adapts the way she works to what each person prefers, and finding the right approach is a shared process. She will discuss goals, try out ways of working and check in regularly to make sure the approach suits the client’s needs and pace.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful when visual contact helps the conversation. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or suit people with limited bandwidth. Live chat or messaging allows brief check-ins and ongoing written support between longer sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, caring responsibilities and everyday life.
