About Veronica
Veronica Prieto is a counsellor with four years of clinical experience and a background in long-term care work. She arrived in central London from Spain decades ago and built a career supporting carers of children with disabilities and vulnerable adults. That hands-on work shaped how she responds to stress and life change today.
She keeps sessions warm and down to earth. Veronica listens first and helps people describe what matters to them.
Background and approach
Together they agree practical goals and simple steps to try between meetings. Her style is friendly and non-judgemental, with an emphasis on the relationship as the base for progress. Veronica uses a mix of approaches to suit each person.
She draws on client-centred methods to follow the client's lead, cognitive behavioural ideas to notice and shift unhelpful thinking, and mindfulness to build present-moment awareness. She also uses emotionally-focused and existential ideas when feelings about relationships or life purpose are central. Many people contact her about depression, anxiety, grief, parenting strain and work stress.
She also addresses concerns such as ADHD, trauma, eating issues, and multicultural or discrimination-related stress. Veronica can hold conversations in English or Spanish, and she accepts international clients. Sessions are offered online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging.
New clients start by completing a short matching questionnaire and booking a session. Veronica aims to tailor the pace and approach to each person’s needs.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Veronica will discuss what feels most useful and adapt methods to match the client's goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and may change as progress is made.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues help, phone sessions use less bandwidth and suit those who prefer not to be on camera, and live chat or messaging can fit shorter check-ins or busy schedules. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or travel commitments and let therapists support people across different locations.
