About Victoria

Victoria Kershaw is a psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom. She has five years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and relationship difficulties. Victoria also helps people manage life changes and regain motivation or direction.

She works in a collaborative way, treating the person in front of her as the expert in their life. Sessions focus on uncovering strengths, building resilience and setting practical steps that feel achievable.

Background and approach

Conversations are held with empathy and without judgement so people can speak honestly about what’s hard for them. Victoria has particular experience with issues connected to adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, and fertility and family-related stresses. She also supports people dealing with body image, commitment worries, infidelity, and the emotional fallout of divorce or separation.

Other areas she addresses include dissociation, feelings of emptiness, guilt and shame, isolation, and questions about life purpose. Her short clinical background includes working with people who have intellectual disability and those coping with the practical and emotional challenges of caregiving and family problems. Victoria aims to make sessions straightforward and focused, so clients leave with clear ideas to try between meetings.

Therapy is offered in English and delivered online using a range of formats. Prospective clients follow a short matching questionnaire to get started and then schedule sessions that fit their calendar.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Victoria lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Evidence-based approaches and online therapy

Victoria uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on helping people solve current problems and improve day-to-day wellbeing. One common approach is problem-focused work that breaks larger issues into small, manageable steps and practises new ways of coping. This type of work helps with anxiety, stress and rebuilding motivation.

Another area of emphasis is attachment-informed support which looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. This helps when communication problems, trust or issues linked to adoption and foster care are affecting a person’s life. Both approaches are practical and aimed at creating changes people can notice between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will assess needs, discuss different ways of working and agree a plan with the client. Adjustments are made as therapy progresses so the method fits the person’s goals and preferences.

Online therapy is offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls are useful for a near face-to-face experience, phone sessions work well for shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is low, and messaging can suit people who prefer written communication or need more frequent, brief support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments.
