About Becky Virgo
Qualified Psychologist • Student Psychotherapist • Survivor to Thriver
Who am I?
My name is Becky, and I am a qualified psychologist (MSc. APA accredited), counsellor (Dip. CST), complimentary therapist and student psychotherapist. I am particularly interested in the journey from surviving to thriving, this is informed by my own history after surviving a near fatal brain haemorrhage.
I am studying for a professional diploma in psychotherapy, having researched all the main modalities from T.A to C.B.T. With training and experience in various other modalities such as NLP, EFT, and Hypnotherapy, I offer an pluralist approach to help clients navigate and thrive during challenging times.
Why Choose Me?
It’s sometimes hard to trust and feel understood. I have unique personal insight and understanding in dealing with life-altering trauma.
Compassionate Guidance
I will provide a safe and non-judgmental space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and concerns. When I am qualified we will work towards healing and personal growth.
Specialisation in Life Transitions
My personal experience of a life limiting and life-altering injury has given me insight and I deeply understand the challenges and uncertainties that come with major life changes. My expertise in this area allows me to offer specialised support which I am passionate about my ambition is making help available whatever the budget.
Holistic Approach
I believe in addressing the whole human system (mind/body/spirit), to support overall well-being. After a life altering crisis the nervous system is flooded, the very mechanisms which save a life can run wild after survival and it is important to allow every system the time and environment which it needs to repair and restore. I integrate various therapeutic techniques in order to dovetail my therapeutic approach to the client/volunteers unique needs.
Pluralistic Therapy
There is value in many modalities and Pluralistic therapy gives the therapist the opportunity to use a diversity of therapeutic approaches specifically tailored to you. So we can find aspects of Transactional Analysis, or Psychodynamic perspectives useful but also use C.B.T methodologies while valuing the therapeutic alliance, essentially find the mix that’s right for you. I know that each of us have the key to our own healing, so if you decide to be my client I will collaborate with you to develop a personalised treatment plan that aligns with your needs and values.
