Victoria Dann , BACP

Victoria Dann, BACP (member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy), is a qualified therapist based in the United Kingdom with nine years of professional experience supporting children, young people, and adults through a range of challenges.

She values the power of human connection and approaches therapy as a collaborative process rather than an attempt to "fix" anyone. Victoria creates a compassionate, trusting environment where clients are listened to and respected. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and works alongside them to explore feelings, identify patterns, and discover practical ways to heal and grow.

Victoria has experience helping clients with stress, anxiety, grief and loss, parenting concerns, self-esteem and confidence, and coping with life changes. She adapts her work to each individual, meeting people with sensitivity, warmth, and attention to their unique needs. Taking the first step toward change takes courage, and Victoria aims to support that step with patience and professional care if a client is ready to begin.

Approaches for online support and connection

Victoria draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to guide online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and taking meaningful action - it is useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns, helping clients explore connection, trust, and intimacy difficulties and improve relationship dynamics.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy itself. Victoria works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts sessions over time so the approach evolves with the client.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility - clients can meet by video call or phone, or choose live chat and text-based messaging for shorter or more frequent check-ins. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, maintain continuity during life changes, and access support from different locations while working with licensed professionals and therapists who can tailor care to individual circumstances.
