Great to meet you!

Hi, I'm Veronica—a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 15 years of experience supporting individuals and families through life’s most difficult challenges. My work has included individual therapy, group counseling, crisis intervention, and reentry support for justice-involved individuals. I have a special passion for helping people facing major transitions, including recovery from addiction, adjusting to life after incarceration, or healing from trauma.

My approach to therapy

My approach is client-centered, culturally responsive, and grounded in compassion. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or substance use, I will work collaboratively with you to build the insight, skills, and resilience needed for long-term healing and growth. I bring a deep background in both clinical and correctional mental health settings.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is a "getting to know you" period where we’ll focus on:

  • ​ Your Story: Discussing what brings you to therapy and your current goals.
  • ​ Logistics: Reviewing confidentiality, session frequency, and any paperwork.
  • ​ The Fit: Ensuring you feel comfortable and supported by my therapeutic style.

​There is no pressure to "have it all figured out"—just come as you are.
