More about Veronica

  • 19 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

I am a professional counselor licensed in Georgia with over 16 years of experience working in various behavioral health settings.

Life is often sweet, but sometimes it can be rough. I teach clients how to effectively navigate both the sweet and the tough parts of their lives by teaching them skills they can use both now and in the future.

I use evidence-based interventions with clients to provide support in working through many of life’s “rough” concerns such as anxiety and depression when they do strike. The therapeutic approaches I use are applicable when working with individuals of varying ages. I seek to aid my clients in reaching the goals that they, not I, have identified.

If you are seeking to confidently navigate both the sweet and not-so-sweet parts of your life and believe I can help, please do not hesitate to reach out to me.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Ms. Smith was extremely good in helping me with my grief regarding my father’s death and my frustrations over what is going on in society. We discussed coping techniques that have helped me.

Dec 2022

Very attentive and truly invested in helping her patients. Very good at listening and asking questions that deepen the conversation gently to reveal underlying viewpoints that may be affecting her patients. While I am early in the process, I can say that I’ve been able to focus and shift in a positive way due to the impact Veronica Smith has had on my mindset. Thank you!

Veronica, takes the time to listen thoroughly and help find solutions to whatever your'e going through. By the end of our first conversation It felt good to talk to someone who listened, understood the things I am dealing with and was willing to help me. I look forward to our conversations & my progression.

M.I.·Jul 2022

The important thing here is that I feel heard and love that she really takes the proper steps to understand what I need to work on and helps me by giving me the tools to be able to become better at whatever that may be. She is also a great listener and gives great examples when explaining things.

Q.U.·May 2022

Thank you so far.

J.A.·May 2022

Veronica is awesome! I feel like she understands and listen to what I’m saying verses telling me what I need or should do. I felt very comfortable during my first session with her.

K.R.·Mar 2022

Veronica is an empathetic and thoughtful therapist. Her insights have empowered me to make meaningful progress in my well-being. 10/10 would recommend.

C.A.·Dec 2021

I really enjoy Veronica and our sessions. She listens to me and allows me to work through what I’m feeling. I’m glad I started therapy and got Veronica.

M.I.·Nov 2021

I've enjoyed working with Veronica thus far. We have only had a couple of sessions, but she has gotten right to work in helping me address some of my anxiety and depression. She's asked me questions and guided me to think about what's really behind the anxiety and the fears to really get at the core beliefs which will allow me to begin work on changing those things.
