About Me

Hello, welcome, and thank you for taking the time to look at my profile. 

Do you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or caught in the same unhelpful patterns? Do you worry constantly or struggle to switch off? Do you feel low, empty or disconnected? Does everything feel like too much? Do you feel like you are not good enough? Do you struggle to say no? Are you struggling with your relationships? Are past experiences still affecting you? Or are you worried about something in the present or future?

Sometimes we know we’re struggling, but we don’t quite know why or what to do. We might feel anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck, or repeat patterns that no longer make sense. Sometimes there is no clear explanation at all; we simply know that something needs to change.

You may be trying to understand yourself better, make sense of your emotions, build confidence and self-esteem, improve your relationships, develop healthier boundaries or manage anxiety and overwhelm. You might be going through a significant life transition, feeling lost or uncertain about the future, or simply wanting to feel more comfortable being yourself.

Whatever is troubling you, you don't have to face it alone!

I am Veronica, a qualified psychotherapist and a trainee counselling psychologist in the final stage of my doctoral degree.

I work with adults of all stages of life, with a particular interest in young adults and students navigating university, work, relationships, identity, and transition into adulthood. I have worked in the student wellbeing sector since 2016. Additionally, I have worked for many years with university students receiving Disabled Students' Allowance due to autism, ADHD, and physical and/or mental health difficulties.

I offer both short- and longer-term therapy, depending on what feels appropriate for you and work with people from a range of backgrounds and at different stages of life, experiencing a range of difficulties, including anxiety, low mood, stress, relationship difficulties, self-esteem, life transitions and feeling stuck or overwhelmed. 

I can offer therapy in English and Italian.

Feel free to contact me to request a FREE 15-minute consultation so we can get to know each other better and see if we're a good fit.

My Approach

As an integrative practitioner, I am experienced in numerous evidence-based modalities and can tailor my approach to what feels most helpful to you. My training included humanistic counselling, CBT, psychodynamic therapy, family/systemic therapy, and creative/expressive techniques. I have particular expertise in psychodynamic and systemic theories and practices.
