Victoria Dann, BACP

Victoria Dann is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with nine years of experience. She creates a warm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what matters to them. She emphasises listening first and working alongside each person rather than trying to 'fix' them.

Victoria helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief and loss, and parenting challenges. She also supports people dealing with self-esteem issues, major life changes, addiction concerns, relationship and intimacy-related worries, and career strain. Jealousy is listed among her areas of focus and is addressed alongside relationship and communication difficulties.

Her approach draws on a mix of evidence-informed methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, attachment-based ideas, client-centred work and mindfulness. Sessions tend to focus on practical steps, clearer thinking, and noticing patterns that get in the way of living the life someone wants.

Victoria aims to tailor sessions to what each person needs. She works at a pace set by the client and uses gentle challenge when it helps. For people who find emotions hard to name, she pays attention to attachment and how early relationships shape current reactions.

If someone is unsure where to start, Victoria helps set simple goals and small steps. Her BACP credential indicates registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling are used to arrange sessions.

How therapy approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that fit their values. It is useful for stress, anxiety and getting unstuck when life changes feel overwhelming. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting patterns of thinking that keep problems going and testing new ways of coping. It can be practical for anxiety, low mood and relationship worries. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape feelings and reactions, and it can help people understand repeated patterns in intimacy and communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that fit. That makes therapy a collaborative process where approaches can be adapted over time to what helps most.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy life and fewer travel demands. Some people prefer not to use video for shorter check-ins or when they need lower bandwidth, while others find speaking face to face by video helps with connection. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the options available before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can offer online work that aims to make regular therapy easier to maintain alongside daily life.
