More about Veronica

  • 8 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMFT

I am a family and marriage therapist licensed in the state of California, with over 8 years of experience working as a psychotherapist. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD, and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.

My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I do not believe in stigmatizing labels.

My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and solution focus theories. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and taking the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

Soy terapista de matrimonios y familias, licenciada en el estado de California, con mas de 8 anos de experiencia proveyendo consejeria.

He trabajado con clients en different areas, incluyendo depression, ansiedad, asuntos relacionados con parejas, crianza de ninos, problemas laborales, compulsions/obsesiones, e hiperactividad. Habiendo assistido tambien, a personas que experimentaron trauma físico o abuso emocional.

Mi estilo terapéutico es cálido e interactivo. Creo en tratar a todos con respeto, sensibilidad y compassion. No creo en estigmatizar or discriminar a nadie.

En tratamiento, combino cognitivismo, psicologia humanistica, enfocando en soluciones que al cliente le funcionaron en el pasado. Diálogo y trato al cliente con la intención de encontrarnos donde el/la cliente se encuentre y contemplando sus necesidades específicas.

Hace falta mucho valor para decidirse a buscar una vida mas satisfactoria y Feliz, y si usted ha dado el primer paso hacia el cambio, yo estare aqui, para apoyarle y darle luz al camino a recorrer

Gracias!

Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Veronica listens first which is helpful for me to process some tough life moments. She is helping me navigate emotional stressors, and has suggested specific changes to how I approach loved ones battling addiction.

Best experience I’ve ever had with a therapist, no judgement, no tacky roundabout language, she is kind but also doesn’t let you shy away from uncomfortable topics. It feels like a real conversation where she is leading you to your own conclusions while standing in your corner.
