Victoria Hookway

Victoria Hookway is licensed in the United Kingdom and has five years of experience supporting people who have faced deeply challenging and often life-changing situations. She recognises that how we see ourselves and how we interpret life events can profoundly affect our wellbeing, and she draws on both professional experience and personal insight in her work.

Working from a person-centred perspective, Victoria treats each client as the expert in their own life and helps them access the answers they already hold. Sessions move at a pace that suits the individual - they can focus on developing practical strategies and techniques or provide space to sit with and work through emotions. Therapy is guided by the client, and anything they choose to bring is welcome.

Victoria has experience helping with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting issues, depression, ADHD and ASC/D, work-related stress and related concerns. She seeks to create an open, safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be expressed without judgment.

She works in private practice, volunteers with a local mental health charity and provides therapeutic support within her school community, assisting children and their families through difficult times. Victoria is a down-to-earth practitioner who is inspired by the commitment her clients bring to processing concerns and finding their authentic selves.

Taking the first step toward a more fulfilling life can feel daunting, and Victoria aims to offer warmth, safety and empathy throughout that process. She has also published a guided journal on Amazon titled 365: A Year of Self-Discovery, intended to provide tools for reflection and personal exploration.
