Counselling tailored to your needs
Whether you're seeking support for yourself, your child or young person, or looking for counselling services within a school or organisation, I'm here to provide a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space where you can feel heard, understood and supported.
I tailor every session to the individual, recognising that everyone's experiences, circumstances and goals are unique. Together, we'll work at a pace that feels right for you, helping you build resilience, develop self-awareness and create meaningful, lasting change.
I provide counselling for:
My Approach
I believe in the power of human connection and collaboration.
I place my clients at the heart of the therapeutic process. I believe that honest, trusting relationships create the space for healing, growth and lasting change.
Drawing on a range of therapeutic approaches, I tailor each session to your individual needs, allowing therapy to develop in a way that feels comfortable and meaningful for you.
Whether you're navigating a difficult period in your life or looking to better understand yourself, we'll work together to find the way forward that works for you.
Flexible ways to access support
Everyone has different preferences when it comes to therapy, which is why I offer a range of ways to access support.
Face-to-Face Counselling
I offer in-person counselling from my welcoming therapy rooms in Cowling and Skipton, providing warm, private spaces where you can feel comfortable exploring whatever has brought you to therapy.
Online & Telephone Counselling
For those who prefer greater flexibility or are unable to travel, I offer secure online counselling and telephone sessions, allowing you to access support from wherever you feel most comfortable.
Walk & Talk Therapy
For some people, walking side-by-side makes difficult conversations feel easier. Walk and Talk Therapy combines the benefits of movement with counselling, helping to regulate the nervous system.
Hi, I'm Victoria
Therapist & Director
I am a qualified Integrative Counsellor with experience supporting adults, children and young people across private practice, education and charitable organisations.
My experience working within schools and community settings, alongside postgraduate research exploring resilience and mental wellbeing, has reinforced the importance of human connection in helping people heal and grow.
Connection and care remain the cornerstones of Hawthorn Lodge Counselling. I believe that strong therapeutic relationships create the foundation for positive, lasting change, helping people build resilience, navigate life's challenges and ultimately find their way back to themselves.
What to expect
Starting counselling can feel like a big step, but I'll support you throughout the process.
