Vicky Jellinek

I was really nervous going into therapy, unsure if what I was going through was ‘big enough’ to warrant help, or if others needed it more than I did. I was worried I might say something weird or that I wouldn't be taken seriously. But from the very first conversation with Vicky, all those fears disappeared. She made me feel completely heard and understood. Vicky is incredibly wise, and speaking with her feels like confiding in an older, more experienced friend who helps lift the weight off your shoulders and makes you feel 'normal' again. More...

Vicky has helped me get my life on track in so many ways with individual and couples therapy. She has saved our marriage and we are so grateful to have found her.
From the initial call, we instantly knew she could help us after being stuck in limbo for so long.
Really can't thank Vicky enough for everything she has done and my husband and I would both recommend her without any hesitation. More...

Vicky is a great therapist I am so grateful to be working with her. I can see improvements already, I can not put into words how pleased I am with the results, I am noticing how it has changed my life with regards to my relationship's in all areas, my confidence, boundaries, and self esteem. If you are needing a therapist do it, its scary but so worth it. I am so grateful to myself for investing in my mental health. Thank you Vicky More...

Truly life affirming!

Vicky has helped me positively reframe my life at a point that I felt lost, exhausted and overwhelmed. I will be eternally grateful for choosing her as my guide, Vicky’s depth of knowledge is broad and she is rigorous yet empathic in her effortless approach. She is keen to make sure you acquire sets of skills, providing lots of reference at the end of the client centred sessions to help bolster your understanding. I would implore you to take the next step; make contact, she will turn your life around.

It may feel difficult at times and take longer than you anticipate, but my advice would be to give in to the journey, embrace what will be a thoroughly rewarding experience. Vicky is paced, methodical, warm and articulate in her therapy. Her insight is evidently steeped in years of learning, yet she will not bamboozle you.

If you are effected the same way that I was from sessions, by the end you will be able to see your issues objectively and you will be able to put each one in the correct place in your mind. Vicky helps you to make sense of the non sense, truly a unique experience to see night turn into day. I cannot recommend her highly enough. More...

Very good and thorough therapy that has significantly helped our marriage, goal-setting, and getting past of negative thought patterns, for improved mental health and wellbeing. Vicky has helped us reach our goals and create more ease and wellbeing in our lives. Thanks so much! Highly recommend More...

Thus far, I feel she is excellent.

Vicky is a great therapist. She made me feel very comfortable to open up to her and really helped me feel a lot better in a very challenging time of my life. Thank you very much Vicky

I am so glad I found Vicky and she agreed to be my therapist. She listened attentively to my story and therapy goals then gave clear guidance from day one, helping me to stay focused on that goal throughout the sessions. A very empathetic and well informed person. Highly recommended. More...

I started working with Vicky when I was in a really bad place. I was struggling with depression, and I went through a hard breakup while unemployed. Vicky was extremely patient and helped me reach a healthy state of mind again. I could not recommend her enough. More...

I was diagnosed with DID 4 years ago I have been through counselling and doctors and even hospital but I didn't find anything that could help or understand and explain what I was going through, I thought I was going mad. So I went on Google and found vicky I got in contact with her as soon as I heard her soft ,gentle voice I new then she is the one who is going to help me and she did . She is amazing she understands everything about DID she explains why it happens and she makes proper sense of it all . So her phone call basically saved me . So if anyone is suffering from dissociation disorder please get intouch with this lady I totally understand DID now.Vicky is one in a million and now she is my best friend More...

Vicky has been excellent and so patient with me. She has such a good understanding of what the problem is and has helped me massively since we started.

Vicky is a very caring and compassionate lady. She has been tremendously supportive, explaining issues in an understandable way and suggesting sound and achievable goals. I can highly recommend her.

I felt low, vulnerable and embarrassed but I knew I needed help. Vicky told me by the end of the programme I would be a different woman. I didn't believe her but I did the work anyhow. I am extremely happy to confirm that she delivered her promise. I now feel the world is my oyster and anything is possible. Thank you Vicky. More...

I found Vicky at a very difficult time and she has helped me so much. From helping with some very difficult trauma, anxiety and depression as well as helping with my adhd. We are working on changing my life and I couldn’t have found anyone better to help me through a very difficult part of my life and a transition into a better and more fulfilling life. I can’t recommend her more. More...

I had been in an extremely bad place for just over 14 years. I wasn't living, I was waiting to die. I came close many times, just wishing it was over.
Doctor after doctor, same generic diagnosis again and again. Here's some tablets etc. The usual. Years past but nothing got better. I don't want to go anymore into it.
Then I met Vicky. It was one of those thing's when you know you connect. Then it was the fact it actually felt she listened. She didn't respond with what a course told or suggested she had too. She responded to me. Where I was. Who I was at that time. Something no NHS doctor etc ever did as they were just waiting for the next patient, then the next etc.
The time she gave me was mine and it wasn't rushed or wasted. Yes I had some bad day's, but only towards the end did I realise it was actually needed. It was part of the mending, my journey.
Vicky led me to somewhere I didn't expect when I asked her for help. I wanted, needed help as I was at my end. She didn't just pull me back from the edge, she gave me value and helped me realise who I actually am. I turn 50 soon and I had never truly understood who I am. I do now.
Vicky listened, she didn't tell me I had to do this or that. She guided me. All the Doctors I have seen and met up until I met Vicky, did not get who I actually was or what caused my actual symptoms etc. Not one.
Vicky saw something in me none of the rest did. Something I had never known myself. She carried me whilst l struggled, while I tried to understand, whilst I climbed out of my hell. A hell which I honestly thought was going to consume me whole.
Vicky gave me a new beginning. A reason to live. The strength I needed and brought me to what actually caused my symptoms/pain. This is not only a review for Vicky, it is to say thank you to her. She didn't just help me, she gave me back something I had lost along time ago. My soul. Thank you. More...

I wish there were more stars to rate how amazing Vicky is as I would give her a thousand if I could :)
I’ve been having Hypnotherapy sessions with Vicky to help treat the anxiety, and ocd, which I’ve had for years.
The results have been mind blowing.
I wish I had of found Vicky alot earlier in my life, but the fact I have been blessed to be having treatment with her now is something i’m so grateful for.
She calms me, and makes me feel stronger from my core.
I felt lost for so long and she has managed to bring me back to myself, I didn’t even think it was possible, but she’s remarkable at what she does.
Vicky has made me see that I am stronger than the anxiety and ocd traits, that they no longer serve a part in my life anymore.
After my Hypnotherapy I feel so relaxed and calm and more in control, of my mind, since my sessions the anxiety symptoms have gone from sky high to a low level and the ocd symptoms have gone from checking 3-4 times to just doing one good check and carrying on with my day.
I was waking up every morning with really high anxiety and a feeling of dread for the day, now I wake up and feel alot less anxious.
When I feel anxious I now have a safe place I can go to in my thoughts which Vicky has shown me visually from Hypnotherapy sessions, this has been so helpful for me, and works.
I feel like Vicky has held the light for me in the dark and given me the tools to not be chased by the shadows that have been holding me back.
I have alot more work to do with Vicky which I’m looking forward to with more therapy to dig alot deeper. But the amount of change I feel already feels great.
Vicky is like an angel. More...

If there were more starts I would click them all.
I have been working with vicky about 7 months. I've been let down and dropped by previous professionals and helped build up my confidence to trust her and the process and show she really doesn't give up! That, to me, is important. I feel listened to and heard vicky takes the time to understand and gives a safe space to talk and feel comfortable, feel like someone actually cares, strong communicator, and is so patient.
I really couldn't thank her more for the beautiful kind soul she really is, and it shows in her work. Thank you for just being you and all the support you have to give. More...

Vicky has helped me so much!
She is very knowledgeable and great at her job.
I struggle with BPD and she has massively helped me with coping mechanisms for this.
I would recommend for anyone looking for a great, easy to talk to therapist.
Thank you for all your help! More...

Vicky has literally saved my relationship, she has helped me through personal struggles and relationship struggles and has literally changed my life in a matter of months, I couldn’t recommend anyone more highly than I do Vicky

Vicky has been a big blessing in my life, once I spoke with her for the first time I felt a connection straight away.
She is so kind and has the ability to make me feel calm the moment I hear her soft calming voice, she is such a wonderful lady with such a beautiful soul, she is helping me so much in finding my strength again after many years of struggling and feeling lost.
Vicky helps me feel stronger inside, she is helping me understand my thoughts and fears are not me, that I am stronger than them, she gives me the ability to see myself through a brighter light, all the while guiding me into finding my true self again….she is so positive and makes you feel like you matter.
I look forward to my sessions with Vicky she is honestly amazing! More...

I was nervous about starting therapy but Vicky makes you feel very comfortable. She has helped me to reframe some disempowering thoughts I was having that have been keeping me stuck. I feel more equipped to break the cycle and to see the positives in my life. If you’re considering therapy I’d definitely recommend Vicky 😀 More...

I reached out to Vicky after struggling with some issues and realising I was not myself. She helped me to work this through and try to figure out what was wrong in a very down to earth, friendly and step by step way. I was at ease straight away and am getting great results. I would recommend Vicky to anyone especially those nervous and new to therapy. More...

I cannot speak highly enough of Vicky, she’s been absolutely amazing for me and my partner.

She is very easy to talk to and makes you very comfortable.

From my initial phone consultation I knew I wanted to work with Vicky. Ive only been working with Vicky for just over a month but have had weekly sessions. I've been blown away by her knowledge and expertise, I've had counselling over many years but never had results like this. Vicky has shown me how to be a stronger person, I've actually learnt to love myself and like the better person I'm becoming. It's not an easy journey when trying to discover my best self but vicky has shown me how and given me the tools to carry on this journey. I will never look back. Im learning to live and love my life now and this will certainly only get better. I am now beginning to live a drama free life. Vicky has taught me how to be my authentic self. Vicky provides feedback and continually gives homework after each sessiin. I feel confident when putting boundaries in place, I dont live in fear now. My confidence, self worth and self esteem are all shining through. My friends have noticed a change in how I deal with difficult situations, my relationship is more meaningful and healthy. I feel more secure in the love of others because vicky just has a wonderful way of helping me to do this. I still have a long way to go on my journey to recovery,but now I've discovered my truest self, I'm excited to carry on this journey with the help and support from Vicky. She truly is an amazing woman and very knowledgeable at what she does. Thank you Vicky for getting me this far and in such a short period of time. More...

I have been working with Vicky for nearly a year now and she has helped me not only with my relationship but my personal traumas. She is extremely experienced and supportive throughout my journey with her, she has helped me in ways and I am incredibly thankful for all she has done for me this far and will continue to do as we work together. She is truly the best at what she does and a pleasure to speak to. Thank you Vicky for everything you have done for me and my partner. You have changed our lives for the better More...

As a therapist myself, it's important to look after our own mental health, and therapy with Vicky has helped me do that in a constructive, non-judgmental and empowering way. She's helped me realise and make steps towards reaching my full potential. I have felt valued and listened to, and above all, safe, when under Vicky's care. Her breadth of knowledge and experience is evident. I'd highly recommend her to others. More...

I have tried a few therapists in the past and not gotten very far at all until I met Vicky.
Naturally at first I was unsure but she has listened, understood and worked on the things I needed.
As well as helping me see the positives and challenge myself when necessary.

I have now worked with Vicky on an individual basis through grief of loosing a loved one, past trauma and anxiety.
After that we did some work through couples counselling.

I started out very anxious and feeling defeated, not in a great place at all most days.
Now, a few months on I have progressed in my career, have the best relationship I could ask for and can fully manage any anxiety.
Thanks to Vicky and all of her help, I can say I love my life again! She really knows what she is doing!
I could not recommend her enough! More...

The journey to healing is not an easy one. Oftentimes it can feel tiresome, repetitive, and even disheartening. I found Vicky at a time when I began to question whether hope for a better life, a better future, was worth fighting for after years of lacklustre support.

Not only does she challenge my negative or often unrealistic thoughts/ views, but she actively listens and provides valuable feedback and homework with everything we discuss each session, ranging from past traumas to present troubles.

I know firsthand how daunting counselling can be, especially when you don’t know what to expect (or have built up this image of complete regeneration in your head). It wasn’t until I found Vicky and began to work through my struggles that I began to realise just how comfortable I had become with my pain and how, even with this new pillar of support in my life, I was afraid to let go of the familiarity and comfort of my problems and behaviours.

Healing is an uphill battle, and my journey is far from over, but in the three months I have been working with Vicky, I have progressed further than I have ever done before and for that, for her, I am truly grateful.

It is easy to write a simple good or bad review for someone, but you all deserve honesty, and if you are seeking help yourself, I will be honest with you. I often find the fractured parts of myself wondering if I am too broken to be fixed, wondering if maybe the sessions and the homework do not work because I haven’t seen these miraculous changes in myself that my mind has concocted. It would be so easy to give up, to stop trying but I know deep down I am healing, and those around me have noticed the changes in my behaviour and mindset even in such a short amount of time.

Counselling takes work on both parts. Vicky is a true credit to her profession and will support you however necessary, but you also need to be willing to put in the work yourself. It can bring up emotions you haven’t felt in a while or avoided completely, it can reveal the good, the bad, and every raw feeling and memory in between. It takes incredible courage to seek help, but it takes even more courage to stick through the process and challenge the parts of you clinging to your pain.

Regardless of your reasons for seeking help with your mental health, just know that you are not alone. When you find someone like Vicky who you connect with and trust, the journey to self healing becomes a hell of a lot easier and I am so glad that I didn’t give up hope and found her.

Thank you Vicky, for all that you’ve done, all that you do, and all that you will do in the future. More...

Vicky is truly amazing at what she does. She has helped me so much with my mental health and she really takes the time to get to know you as a person very reassuring and encouraging. The best therapist I’ve ever had.

Vicky has helped me a great deal, she has been instrumental in improving my way of thinking which has made my relationships with the people closest to me so much happier.

Would 100 percent recommend her. 😁😁 More...

Couldn’t recommend Vicky more. She has helped my confidence x10 and helped me prepare for big life changes in a way I didn’t know how to myself. I feel at ease with her and always feel better after speaking with her. She taught me practises to use to build self worth and resilience and I will be forever grateful! More...

Very easy to talk to. Vicky put me at ease from the start making me feel comfortable discussing anything.

Last year I had thought year and the worst December in my entire life.
I didn’t know what to do with myself and how to help myself.
I have found Vicky searching for help, and the two sessions we saved my Christmas and gave me so much.

Big thank you Vicky! So grateful how much you have helped me, restored hope and focus for better days! Your energy had a positive impact on me.

I remember our first conversations/consultation and in what mental place I was back then. I am in a different place now and focusing on what makes me happy and gives inner peace. Thank you 🤩

Sending best wishes and Merry Christmas! 🎄 More...

I started working with Vicky around 3 month ago. She has drastically changed my perception on how to handle my downs and shown me ways to handle it I never thought would work but they really do. She knows exactly what's going on in my head and is able to reach in and dissect without you having to hesitate. She makes you feel so comfortable and at ease throughout the process and would highly recommend Vicky to anyone. More...

Vicky really helped me with my anxiety and childhood traumas, the results are fantastic and living much happier and healthier!

I must say that deciding to work with Vicky was the best decision ever, 1 year ago I was working for someone else when after a few sessions with Vicky asked me why I don’t work for myself? I always wanted to open a business but I didn’t had any idea where to start and here is where Vicky comes into the picture. She always encouraged me and helped me with each steps I had to take in order to open my business. Not only she advised me and done research for me in order to help me but she supported me at the emotional level through all the process. 1 year later here I am proud of me and my business, my business is going well and as I always told Vicky , I wouldn’t be here without her Life coaching and support. Really grateful and she changed my life literally. I have more time for me and my kids.
She is the best and I totally recommend her. More...

I felt instant connection with Vicky her voice is so soothing and I feel so comfortable with her.

My initial contact with Vicky was very positive, professional and definitely someone I am looking forward to moving on with.
We had a chat on the phone to start with and her knowledge and understanding comes across in heaps as well as all of the experience that she has gained over the years.

Definitely worth a start with Vicky More...

I have been a patient of Vicky for several months. She has helped me very much and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone else.

Can’t recommend enough helped me through a hard time and helped me overcome what I was struggling with. Definitely recommend

There is not enough space to write how much I can thank Vicky for helping my son. He was mis-treated for several years and we came across Vicky by chance and believe she was sent to us as we couldn't have asked for someone more professional, compassionate in her work to genuinely be concerned for my son and to encourage him to heal in the correct way. She also has helped the family with the effect it has had on us and we are so grateful for having her with us through this difficult time. We highly recommend Vicky Jellinek!!! More...

From start to finish Vicky made me feel at ease and handled my case in a delicate and insightful manner. I would highly recommend Vicky

It was amazing working with Vicky, not only does she give advice but she listens and guides you through the process as well. I would recommend her to anyone out there, that needs to heal because she has a passion for what she does and it shows in her work. Thank you so much Vicky More...

Whilst Vickey has helped my very close relative so much the support she has given me as a carer has been immense. Her caring and understanding of my needs she supported without even been asked which in turn helped my relative knowing of support for us both. I would fully recommend Vicky she is professional kind caring and I feel so fortunate to of found her. More...

I would highly recommend Vicky. I reached out a few months ago as I was dealing with social anxiety which was making me very self conscious and unsettled in myself. After reaching out it was a very quick and friendly response, Vicky was very knowledgeable, and gave comfort at the start of the process, allowing me to express myself to the true extent. Throughout the sessions Vicky has helped me to work through my social anxiety and it has helped massively. I've noticed massive improvements in both my personal and professional work life around anxiety and self improvement. More...
