Starting therapy is an important step, and it’s crucial to find a therapist who truly understands you. I’m Veronica, a Registered Psychotherapist. I take a compassionate, collaborative, and client-focused approach to therapy, offering a space where you can explore your emotions and challenges with warmth and understanding, while going at your own pace.

Veronica specializes in therapy for teens and preteens navigating challenges at home or school, including bullying, isolation, and learning difficulties. These struggles often show up in other ways—behavioral issues, withdrawal, non-communication with parents, or school refusal. Many teens experience feelings of sadness, loneliness, or confusion, which can be difficult for both them and their parents.

Building trust is at the heart of Veronica’s work. She creates a safe, judgment-free space where clients can explore their emotions and experiences. With over 5+ years of experience, she integrates mindfulness, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help teens develop skills for emotional resilience and self-discovery. She offers individual and group therapy to support teens dealing with anxiety, depression, identity exploration, and communication challenges.

Veronica understands how important it is to find the right therapist for a teen. The process begins with a parent session before transitioning to confidential sessions with the teen, fostering trust and growth.
