About me
A Place To Be Heard, And Met With Care
I'm Victoria, a qualified, NCPS-registered Creative Counsellor based in Newton Abbot, Devon. I currently work from a quiet, private, comfortable art studio with my online clients, and from the Dartmoor Centre for Counselling and Psychotherapy in the centre of Newton Abbot.
Creative Counselling means I work as a traditional therapist, but can also bring in creative techniques for when words and talking might not quite work, or to enhance the therapeutic process.
Training, qualifications & experience
- Level 4 Diploma in Counselling from Heartwood Centre for Counselling and Psychotherapy
- Diploma Therapeutic Safety in Trauma
- Transactional Analysis 101
- Foundation Certificate in Art Therapy

Further information
As an experienced artist, I have seen first-hand the beneficial aspects of creativity when dealing with my own struggles. My creative practice runs alongside my counselling work, and I regularly undertake extra training to enhance and expand what I can offer.
