About
Hola! I’m Veronica. Is “adulting” feeling like one of the most challenging, confusing things you’ve tried to figure out in life? Do you often question yourself and think things like “what am I even doing with my life?” “Is this how things are supposed to be?” Truth is, the world today is more challenging to navigate and understand than ever before, which has led to higher rates of mental health issues than we’ve ever seen. For many of us, some days feel like things are pretty all right and manageable. As a parent, you may be asking yourself “Where did I go wrong?” “How could my son/daughter [fill in the blank]?” as you notice your child’s mood and behaviors change. They may be spending more time alone, angry and irritable for “no reason”, engaging in risky behaviors, or unable to function academically or with peers as they did in the past. While these feelings and behaviors can appear to affect life in some of the worst ways, they’re also warning signs telling you it’s time for something different. As a clinician who recognizes that therapy is not a one-size-fits, I bring researched-backed skills, techniques, and lifestyle changes offered through different therapeutic approaches to meet you where you are and create a unique, personalized experience that will work for you. You are ready to take that next step and deserve to begin working on the most important person in your life, you. As a clinician who values a holistic, integrative approach and with my background in guiding teens and young adults working through things like life transitions, anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationships, I am ready to support you through your journey in building a sustainable life you are proud to call yours. Allow me to help you identify and work through maladaptive ways of thinking and being so that you can learn and develop new habits that will promote self-efficacy and lifelong success in your mental and physical health.
