About Victoria

Victoria Gonticas is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years' professional experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief and career worries. She also supports those facing relationship and intimacy-related concerns and people struggling with self-esteem and anger.

She works in a straightforward, respectful way. Conversations are shaped around what matters to the individual. Sessions aim to be practical and grounded, with space to talk about feelings and to notice patterns that get in the way of change.

Background and approach

Victoria draws on approaches that focus on connection and emotions. She uses attachment ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. Emotionally-focused techniques help people name and shift strong feelings, and client-centred listening keeps the person's priorities central.

Therapy may explore issues such as abandonment, communication problems, guilt and shame, loneliness, life purpose and midlife change. Relationship topics include separation and non-monogamous arrangements, and she also works with workplace pressures and women's issues. Victoria adapts the pace to each person.

She aims to offer a supportive space to try different ways of relating and coping. The first sessions typically focus on understanding immediate concerns and agreeing on practical steps to work towards the client's goals.

How attachment and emotion work online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and emotional reactions. Online sessions can help people identify those patterns and try new ways of relating in day-to-day life. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on recognising and naming intense feelings in relationships to shift distressing cycles and improve closeness. Client-Centred Therapy keeps your priorities at the centre and uses reflective listening so you feel heard and understood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, and together they will decide which methods to use. That collaborative process makes it easier to adapt methods as progress is made.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls make it possible to meet face to face without travel, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a lunch break. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or times when writing feels easier than speaking. These formats help people fit therapy around work and family life and maintain continuity when travel or location make in-person appointments harder.
