About Victoria

Victoria "Vicky" Mason is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years' experience. She works remotely with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, grief and family-related concerns. Vicky also focuses on attachment and relationship-related struggles such as abandonment, codependency and communication problems. Sessions are offered in English and international clients may be accepted.

Vicky uses a person-centred style that places the client's experience first. She listens to what is happening at home and in relationships, and helps people make sense of the emotions that feel overwhelming. Work in sessions is straightforward and practical rather than technical; conversations aim to clarify feelings and identify small steps forward.

She pays attention to how past connections shape present reactions, including issues tied to attachment, avoidance and feelings of emptiness. Vicky supports people who are coping with guilt, shame, jealousy or problems around commitment and control. She also helps those navigating fatherhood concerns and family problems where these affect an individual's day-to-day life.

Sessions often focus on improving communication and reducing repeated patterns that cause distress. Vicky encourages reflection on what matters and explores ways to rebuild trust, forgive where possible, and set clearer boundaries. The emphasis is on steady progress and practical handling of emotions.

To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and fees vary with location. Confirm current session options before booking.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Vicky works from a person-centred foundation, which means she focuses on your experience and helps you talk through feelings at your own pace. This approach is useful for anxiety, low mood and issues where someone needs to feel heard and understood before making changes.

She also pays attention to attachment-related patterns. That involves looking at how early connections shape current reactions and relationship habits. Working on those patterns can help with abandonment fears, codependency and recurring communication problems.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Vicky will discuss different ways of working with you, try methods that fit your needs and adjust the plan as you go. The aim is to choose approaches that match your goals and day-to-day life, not to impose a single method.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know how sessions are delivered. The online format can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy household and can reduce travel time. It also allows for shorter check-ins when needed and for sessions that suit your routine and practical constraints.
