About Victoria
Victoria Pike is a counsellor who works in a humanistic, person-centred way. She focuses on building trust first so people feel heard and respected. Vicky aims to create a calm, compassionate space where someone can talk through worries without feeling judged.
She has five years' experience and holds membership with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Vicky draws on that background to support people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression and life changes.
Background and approach
Her practice also covers issues such as body image, illness and chronic pain, and caregiver stress. Sessions tend to be conversational and paced to the individual. Vicky listens closely and follows the lead of the person she is working with, offering observations and gentle questions to help make sense of things.
She aims to help people find their own solutions rather than impose steps or judgement. People who come to Vicky often need space to process big life events, manage persistent worry, or cope with changes related to illness, pregnancy and bereavement. She also supports those dealing with sexual assault, domestic violence, fertility and end-of-life concerns.
Her approach suits people who want a steady, empathetic presence while they work through difficult feelings. Sessions are available in English and take place online by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. Vicky works from the United Kingdom and does not accept international clients.
To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to her availability.

Online support
Humanistic techniques focus on recognising strengths and personal resources. The aim is to help people reconnect with what matters to them and make choices that feel right. This can be useful for coping with life changes, chronic illness and caregiver stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and is decided collaboratively. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals and try methods that suit their needs and preferences. Adjustments are made as therapy progresses to ensure sessions remain helpful and relevant.
Online therapy using video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging offers flexibility that fits modern life. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer typing or need brief, frequent contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, medical appointments and family commitments while keeping continuity of care with a registered professional.
