Victoria PostlesBACP

Victoria Postles is a counsellor who supports people through pregnancy and childbirth-related distress and a wide range of emotional challenges. She helps with anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, relationship strain, parenting stress and trauma. Her approach aims to make difficult feelings easier to understand and manage in everyday life.

Victoria offers a calm, relational space where people can talk through repeating patterns and painful memories. She listens without judgement and helps clients notice choices they can make differently. Therapy sessions focus on increasing awareness and turning insights into small, practical steps that feel doable.

Her background includes five years of work as a practising counsellor and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has experience supporting issues connected to pregnancy and childbirth, including infant and fetal loss and infertility-related distress, as well as compassion fatigue and chronic health concerns.

Victoria uses a mix of client-centred, existential and narrative approaches to suit each person. That means sessions centre on the person’s experience, the meanings they make, and the stories they live by. She adapts the work to the pace the client needs and focuses on emotional clarity and practical change.

The overall aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes. Victoria helps people build self-compassion, understand relationship dynamics, and manage symptoms so they can move forward with more confidence.

How her approaches shape online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what is heard, and helps people feel understood so they can explore difficult feelings at their own pace. This approach is useful for stress, anxiety and parenting or pregnancy-related worries.

Existential Therapy focuses on meaning, choice and the challenges life brings. It helps people facing life transitions, identity questions or the weight of loss to think about what matters and how they want to move forward. The work can help with feelings that arise around childbirth, grief and major life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be worked out together. Victoria will discuss what feels most helpful, adjust methods as therapy progresses, and collaborate on goals and practical steps that suit each person’s situation.

Confirm the current session formats before booking, as the profile does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow a shorter check-in when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who need quieter surroundings, depending on the chosen format. Registered and accredited professionals can offer this flexibility while helping clients apply therapeutic changes to everyday life.
