Victoria Bates

I practice on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays 

I am here to support you in working through your challenges so you are able to better understand your thoughts, feelings and experiences, at your own pace, with empathy and without judgement. Together we will work towards, finding acceptance, positive changes to your well being and bringing about a sense of inner peace.

The counselling relationship is like no other, together we will embrace all the parts of you no matter where you are in your life, how confused, challenged or unsure you may be feeling. As your counsellor, i will accept you unconditionally and meet you where you are, enabling you to connect more deeply with yourself so you feel safe to explore the things that are bothering you.

I work with a range of presenting issues such as anxiety, Obsessive Complusive Disorder (OCD), self esteem/low confidence, relationship/family issues, work related stress, family breakdown/divorce, domestic violence, phobias and panic attacks to name a few. Specialist area for Individual therapy Anxiety and OCD. I also work with couples and relationships.

I work with adults as a Psychotherapeutic Integrative Counsellor. Working in an integrative way means I am trained in a number of therapeutic approaches that enables me to tailor therapy to meet your unique needs. Working in this way honours individuality and difference, ensuring our sessions work in a way that brings about positive change for you. 

I offer a confidential, safe and supportive space for you to explore the things you feel are affecting your happiness or holding you back. My aim is to understand you and how your world looks for you. Beginning therapy takes a huge amount of courage and I consider it a privilege to work with my clients, sharing their journey to support them in finding their own inner peace.

Your first session is an opportunity to tell me more about what brings you to therapy and your goals and expectations of where you would like to get to, to make life feel more manageable and for you to feel more at peace within yourself.
