"When someone really hears you without passing judgement on you, without trying to take responsibility for you, without trying to mould you, it feels damn good". - Carl Rogers
I'm Vicky, a mental health therapist and bereavement counsellor near Winchester and Southampton
Welcome, I'm Vicky Mould and thank you so much for coming to my website.
I am a private counsellor working with adults of all ages. I provide online and phone counselling across Eastleigh, Winchester, Southampton and Fareham (or further afield if you live in the UK).
I hope the information on this website gives you a sense of what I can offer and how that might benefit you. If you'd like to take that next step into counselling, you can contact me to arrange a free 45-minute consultation online or over the phone.
Some reasons to get in touch
Are you struggling with feelings of loss and grief - through bereavement or other life changes?
Are you battling depression, frequent anxiety or postnatal depression, concerned about self-harming, or overwhelmed by suicidal feelings?
Is increasing stress impacting your bipolar disorder or schizophrenia? Has a diagnosis of mental illness affected your self-esteem?
Are you experiencing relationship issues, such as difficulties with trust, boundaries, confidence, communication or feeling connected to others?
Are you struggling to manage workplace stress?
Is sexual or domestic abuse in the past impacting how you experience life now? Are you being controlled/abused in a current relationship, or are you concerned this may be happening to you?
As a mental health therapist and bereavement counsellor near Winchester and Southampton, I can offer a safe and supportive environment.
Acknowledging that you need some support and contacting a counsellor can be scary, yet perhaps you're feeling stuck, confused or alone in what you're experiencing. Or maybe talking to those around you doesn't feel helpful or possible.
I am a down-to-earth, non-judgemental and attentive counsellor, so you can talk freely and feel valued, accepted, heard and understood.
Counselling with me can offer relief, insight, hope and increased confidence and trust in yourself.
Sessions are over the phone or online using Zoom, FaceTime or WhatsApp, which may feel more convenient for you, discreet or relaxed.
If you'd like to explore counselling together, you can contact me to arrange a free online or phone consultation. You can email me through this website or call or text my mobile 07729 193629.
Working together
As a person-centred counsellor, I work to provide an environment where you can make sense of your struggles and find your way through them.
In the counselling space, you will be welcome as you are - not judged, and I can help you feel part of a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship.
We can explore your thoughts, feelings and emotions at your pace. Creative mediums (art materials, writing, cards or photos) can be used in our counselling to help you connect with and express your feelings and emotions or if you would like to try out the creative process.
I can listen in a way that helps you feel genuinely valued, heard and understood - perhaps for the first time, get some clarity or a fresh perspective on your situation and develop your awareness.
As I trust you're the expert on yourself, I don't offer advice or tell you what to do. But I can support and empower you to make life choices or changes that you want to make and move towards a more comfortable or fulfilling life.
If you'd like to explore counselling together, you can contact me to arrange a free online or phone consultation. You can email me through this website or call or text my mobile 07729 193629.

I can offer a safe environment to explore your sense of personal loss, express your feelings and emotions and find a meaningful way forward.
Bereavement counselling
Bereavement counselling is an effective form of support if you have experienced the loss of a friend or family member, including a child.
Perhaps you're struggling with your feelings and emotions or would like a safe environment to share or create memories and talk openly about the relationship you hoped for or had together.
Or you'd like support to come to terms with your loss and adjust to the changes in your life.
Or maybe your loss has triggered new or worsening depression, anxiety or post-traumatic stress disorder, and you'd like support with this.
I can offer compassion, attentive listening and understanding. I can work with you at your pace to find your sense of coping and moving forward.
I have been a bereavement professional since 2008 - initially as a trained volunteer for Cruse Bereavement Care and now as a bereavement counsellor in private practice. I've worked with people bereaved through different circumstances.
I hold further training in child and baby loss, including the sensitive issues of miscarriage, stillbirth, neonatal loss and sudden infant loss.
