Therapeutic approaches and online support
Viktoria works with several evidence-informed approaches tailored to the person in front of her. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a warm, accepting space where clients are supported to explore their feelings and personal goals - this approach helps with self-esteem, relationship concerns, and finding direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related difficulties. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on understanding and processing traumatic experiences in a paced way, supporting recovery from abuse, abuse-related symptoms, and overwhelming life events.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey and happens collaboratively. Viktoria will work with each person to understand their goals, preferences, and challenges, and together they will decide which methods feel like the best fit and adjust them as needed.
Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to access care from different locations. These formats give flexibility for scheduling, allow continuity when travel or circumstances change, and let people engage in the ways that feel most comfortable while working with licensed professionals and therapists.
