Is online Counselling effective?

Yes! Studies worldwide have shown online counselling to be just as effective as face-to-face counselling, and even more effective in some cases. With online counselling, you can communicate in a way you feel comfortable. If you’d feel more relaxed talking to your counsellor in a familiar setting, you can hold the session from the comforts of your home. Find a trusted online counsellor on Bark committed to helping you through a difficult time from anywhere in the world.

What can online Counselling help with?

Online counselling can help with pretty much anything that face-to-face counselling can, including difficult life changes, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and much more. However, if your symptoms are extreme you may want to seek more urgent, face-to-face support. If you’re looking for an online counsellor who specialises in a particular field, like family counselling or counselling for children, you can search for online counsellors in a broad range of specialisms on Bark. Just let us know what you need and we’ll put you in touch with the best match for you.

What type of counselling services do you offer?

At my practice, I offer lots of different types of counselling services – from individual sessions to group therapy. It all depends on what each client needs and what they’ll benefit from. Because a lot of my clients lead busy lives, I also offer online and telephone counselling if that suits their schedule better. Although I always suggest coming in for a face-to-face session now and then, as these are often very helpful.

What qualifications do you have?

To be a certified counsellor, you need to have a Level 4 qualification in counselling. This can be as a diploma, or at a degree or postgraduate level. I chose to go down the university route by undertaking a BSc Hons in Psychology & Counselling. This meant that I got a degree and was accredited by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I am now a registered counsellor with over 10 years of experience and have completed a number of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) modules.

What is the main reason your clients come to you?

Most of my clients have certain goals in mind when it comes to their therapy. Often they want to resolve issues which are causing difficulties in their lives. This may be problems in their personal relationships that they want help working through. It could be with their partner, family, friends, or work colleagues. Or they may want to develop coping mechanisms to help deal with their own mental health. But often these can interlink. For example, if a client is wanting help with their personal relationships, this often has a positive knock-on effect on their own mental health.

I have had an initial talk with Rob and he listened to what support I was actually looking for. I was needing support to work with someone else. He wasn’t patronising which I really appreciated.

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.

I have been working with Anthony for some time now; he has guided me through many obstacles I have faced within marriage, parenting and trauma. Anthony helped me push through to reach my end goal and directed me through my historical trauma. Anthony is very clear and direct but also has a very kind soul. I would highly recommend his services to everyone that I feel would require them.
