About Victoria Cullip
After nearly ten years of experience in senior management roles in the advertising and communications industry, I left the UK at the beginning of 2001 for a three-month sabbatical in Sydney.
During that time I realised my interest was less on continuing to climb the corporate ladder and more about discovering what life was really all about, for me. The first step was to quit my London-based job, extend my three-month sabbatical and begin a search for what I really wanted to do each day. Before long, I decided to resume my interest in psychology by pursuing a new career in this field.
My postgraduate training at the Australian College of Applied Psychology in Sydney gave me a theoretical, experiential and ethical foundation from which to practice as a counsellor and psychotherapist.
Since my training, I have worked in Lifeline Sydney's personal counselling program, which offers counselling for lower income clients. I set up my own private practice in the eastern suburbs and work with clients dealing with a range of issues including relationship problems, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, problems with food, and their own search for the 'meaning of life'. I also teach counselling and related subjects at the Australian College of Applied Psychology.
More recently I have begun working with clients in lifestyle coaching, in which the focus is on a holistic approach to achieving your optimal wellbeing. To find out more about this, please click here.
I continue to undertake professional training and workshops, supervision and personal psychotherapy on a regular basis to extend my personal and professional learning.
My belief is that self-exploration is a lifelong journey and my aim is to be with my clients through part of this journey, to help with the healing from problems and to facilitate personal growth.
