Internal Family Systems Therapy UK
If you’re curious about IFS therapy and inner child work and how it can help you and you have a question, I encourage you to reach out.
Hi, I’m Victoria. Welcome to Inner Child Work, UK where I offer compassionate, internal family systems therapy and inner child work for adults in Newcastle, UK, in-person and online. I provide a safe and supportive environment for anyone seeking to explore internal family systems therapy, nurture self-acceptance, emotional regulation, and strengthen their mental well-being.
If you feel ready to take the next step toward healing and building a more calm, connected and resilient sense of self, I encourage you to reach out.
Simply fill out the contact form, and I will personally get back to you to arrange a convenient time for a free 15-minute consultation or to schedule your first session.
If you have questions or want to know more about my practice, you can bring these questions to our consultation. Your well-being is my priority, and I’m here to offer guidance, support, and the information you need to make the best decision for your therapy journey.
I understand that beginning therapy can feel daunting, and I want to acknowledge the courage it takes to reach out. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, or simply seeking personal growth, I am here to help you explore your emotions, develop coping strategies, and move toward meaningful change.
My approach to therapy is rooted in calmness, gentleness and compassion. I often work with those who are highly sensitive and find healing in calm spaces where they feel held and attuned to.
Many of previous clients have felt drawn to IFS and inner child work because they have tried counselling and traditional talk therapy and haven’t found sustainable healing. IFS therapy offers a beautiful compassionate framework for gently getting to the root of many emotional difficulties by befriending and unburdening parts and releasing the hurt, emotions and pain they carry.
I’ve witnessed first-hand people feel more calm, lighter in their bodies, grow in self-confidence and smile more, which has been such a joy to see.
My clients have appreciated my intuitive approach through gentle inquiry – uncovering the emotions and beliefs that keep them emotionally stuck. If you’d like a therapy approach that helps you to understand the internal dynamics in your psyche that keep you stuck in the past, IFS therapy could be a good approach for you.
I can ask the intuitive questions your system needs to feel seen, heard, understood, appreciated, so you can make new neural connections, uncover blindspots and find emotional integration. This helps you to get to know yourself and feel confident about who you are.
I believe in the power of a trusting therapeutic relationship and am committed to providing a non-judgmental space where you feel heard, valued, and understood. Together, we will clarify your goals and work toward building emotional resilience, self-awareness, and a stronger sense of well-being. Not only will we get to know your parts and their roles to help you befriend your nervous system, we will also get to know their strengths, so you can grow in self-acceptance and self-confidence.
I look forward to supporting you on your journey toward healing and growth.
Warmly,
Victoria Hockaday
Over the past year, I committed to one of the most transformative journeys of my life: healing my inner child. I was fortunate to walk this path with my therapist, Vicky -a presence so calm, grounded, and steady that she created the safety I needed to grow, untangle, and release. Through this journey, layers of fear began to dissolve. I confronted limiting beliefs I didn’t even know I carried. I let go of inner blockages that had shaped my reactions, my expectations, and the way I received the world. With each session, something softened… and something strengthened.
This work liberated me. I found myself living, working, and connecting from a clearer, freer place. My meaningful relationships became richer and more authentic. The questions that once weighed heavily on my heart finally had space to breathe – and the clarity that emerged was invaluable. Inner child work is not instant. It peels gently, a layer at a time, and each layer reveals a deeper truth. But the unfolding is worth it. I am deeply grateful for this experience. It was exceptional – a gift I didn’t know I needed and I would recommend it to anyone seeking deeper alignment, peace, and a fuller sense of self.
I currently have some availability. Fill in the form below and I will aim to get back to you soon for a 15 minute consult for you to ask questions and explore if we would be a good fit working together. I see clients in Newcastle and virtually for those in the UK.
