About Victoria (Vix) Benson

Victoria (Vix) Benson is a BACP-registered Transactional Analysis psychotherapeutic counsellor practising in the United Kingdom. BACP refers to the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, the UK professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists.

She has experience supporting people with stress and anxiety, relationship concerns, and depression. Her work is grounded in the belief that each person is the expert of their own story and that existing strengths can be drawn on to overcome challenges.

Victoria describes the decision to seek a more fulfilling and happier life as a courageous first step, and she offers steady encouragement throughout that process. Her practice is client-led and she does not give direct advice. Instead she focuses on helping clients discover answers that already lie within them through reflective listening, open observations, and gentle challenge.

Through careful exploration she helps clients recognise patterns in thinking, feeling, and behaviour, and to consider choices about the changes they wish to make. Her style aims to increase clarity and support informed, self-directed change.

Many people wonder whether online therapy can make a meaningful difference in their lives. For many common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and navigating life changes - evidence indicates outcomes comparable to traditional in-person sessions, making remote support a viable option for many people.

One of the main advantages of online therapy is flexibility. People can connect in the way that fits their routine and comfort level, choosing video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. That flexibility often makes it easier to maintain continuity of care alongside work, family, and other commitments.

Therapists in online practice are licensed professionals, and clients may switch providers if they feel a different therapeutic fit would be more helpful. For those weighing their options, online therapy can offer practical access to professional support without sacrificing the core elements of a therapeutic relationship.
