About Vicky

Vicky Bond Jones works on stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, parenting and self-esteem using a person-centred and collaborative approach. She is NCPS accredited and has three years' experience. She welcomes straightforward conversations about what you want from counselling and encourages questions before your first session.

Vicky uses client-centred ways of working to listen and follow what the person brings to the room. She also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to help with practical patterns of thinking and behaviour, and psychodynamic ideas to look at recurring relationships and past experiences that affect today.

Sessions are led by the client and shaped around their goals. Vicky describes her style as collaborative and reflective; she checks in regularly so the work can be adjusted if needed. Practical coping skills may be offered alongside talking through feelings and relationships.

Her background includes diplomas from Level 3 through Level 5 in counselling and psychotherapeutic practice, and experience working with young people and parents in charity and school settings. That experience informs work on academic pressure, social issues and confidence for teenagers as well as adult concerns.

Clients can expect clear discussion about how sessions will run and what to focus on in early meetings. Vicky asks clients to be active in setting aims, and she will explain therapeutic choices in plain language during the first appointments.

How her therapeutic approaches work in online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's concerns so the counsellor responds to what matters most to the individual; it helps with emotional processing and building confidence in decision making.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns; it is useful for anxiety, stress and low mood.

Psychodynamic ideas consider how past relationships and repeated patterns affect current feelings and behaviour; this can help when similar problems keep recurring over time.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the early work. The counsellor will discuss options and agree a plan together based on the client's goals, preferences and what emerges in the first sessions.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as specific options are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and may reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed, or let someone choose meetings that suit their routine and energy levels.
