Vicki Steadman

Why | It is such a privilege to be alongside people on their journey, hearing them say something out loud for the very first time and offering that space that is so unique, in that, it is completely focused on them and the relationship isn’t intertwined with their life outside of the work.

Who | At the moment I work with adults and young people (13+) but I’d love to expand this.

How | I am trained as a Humanistic-Integrative Counsellor and predominantly use a person-centred approach. I draw on other approaches, theories and techniques as appropriate and in response to each individual client.

My passion | Professionally, I am passionate about creating a place of safety for individuals to explore and respond to whatever is going on for them at any given time. Personally, my passion is my family and being available to support them in whatever they endeavour. I also love pop music, singing along in the car and swimming!

My little known-fact | I feel like I’m quite an open book! I’m a complete “home-bird”, love a cup of tea and enjoy the humdrum of life.

My self-care tip | For me, it’s all about balance. I work hard to keep my life in balance and believe that saying no when something tips that balance is really important to maintain my well-being.
