Victoria Wren, BACP, NCPS

Victoria Wren helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem and relationship or intimacy-related issues. She also supports those dealing with addictions, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strain, career worries, bipolar and depression, and life changes such as divorce or bereavement. Victoria has many years of experience and offers a calm, impartial space to talk.

She listens carefully to understand each person’s view. Conversations are led by the client and move at their pace. The aim is to help people recognise what they want to change and to find practical ways to make that happen.

Victoria trained to a high level in counselling and therapeutic education and holds professional registrations BACP and NCPS. She also has a Level 4 Advanced Diploma in Integrative Counselling and a Master of Science in Practical Skills Therapeutic Education. She brings over two decades of experience from education settings to her sessions.

Her style is compassionate and gentle, and she focuses on helping individuals build on their own strengths. She supports people with attachment issues, communication problems, control issues and feelings of emptiness, alongside neurodiversity concerns such as autism and Asperger syndrome.

Victoria also works with clients facing serious life events including cancer, fertility challenges, hospice and end-of-life matters. She can help when someone feels isolated, overwhelmed by guilt and shame, or stuck during a midlife or career crisis.

Sessions aim to create lasting change through steady, practical steps. People who want a thoughtful, respectful counsellor who will follow their pace may find this approach helpful.

Client‑centred care online and how it helps

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding from the person’s point of view. The counsellor offers empathy and acceptance, helping people to talk through feelings and clarify what they want to change. This approach suits issues like anxiety, grief, self-esteem and relationship struggles where being heard matters.

Victoria’s practice uses a calm, client-led way of working. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will help clients decide what feels most useful based on their goals, needs and preferences, and adapt the style as therapy progresses.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video lets people see visual cues and have fuller conversation, phone calls can use less bandwidth and suit a quick check-in, while live chat or text messaging is useful for shorter, written exchanges and for fitting support around work or busy days. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life, and they let people choose the format that works best for them.
