Viktoria Kirilova, BACP

Viktoria Kirilova is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has five years of direct practice as a therapist and draws on broader experience from more than a decade in mental health roles. Viktoria aims to tailor sessions to each person she sees and focuses on building a dependable working relationship.

She works in a straightforward, conversational way. Viktoria helps people talk through stress, anxiety, relationship worries, low mood and issues that affect everyday life. She also supports people facing trauma, addictive behaviours, identity questions and struggles with self-esteem or body image.

Her practice uses approaches that fit the person rather than a fixed formula. Sessions can include gentle exploration of past experience alongside practical strategies for changing thoughts and habits. Motivational techniques may be used to clarify goals and encourage small steps forward.

Viktoria communicates in English and Bulgarian. She is based in the United Kingdom and holds BACP registration. If someone is unsure whether she is the right match, she encourages an initial conversation to find out how she might help.

People looking to start usually begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and arranging a first session. Viktoria aims to make sessions usable alongside everyday life, focusing on manageable changes and clearer thinking rather than technical jargon.

How Therapeutic Approaches Work Online

Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of sessions. It focuses on listening, understanding and responding to what matters to the individual so they can make sense of their feelings and choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and everyday habits influence mood and behaviour and uses practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful. That collaboration helps decide whether to focus more on exploring past difficulties, on practical skills, or on short-term goal work.

Confirm the session formats offered before booking so the practical details match your needs. Online therapy can make fitting appointments into a busy week easier, help with shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or remove travel time. It can also allow sessions to continue when life events make attending in person harder. Registered or accredited professionals adapt their approach to suit each person and to support progress in ways that fit everyday life.
