About Veronica
Veronica Montoya is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, depression, relationship strain, and codependency. Veronica is experienced supporting issues around intimacy, self-esteem, anger, career transitions, ADHD, and trauma. She speaks English and Spanish and has nine years of clinical experience.
Veronica earned a master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from Nova Southeastern University and a bachelor’s in Psychology from Florida Gulf Coast University. She has worked with adults, young adults, adolescents, and children from varied backgrounds. Much of her work involves teens and young adults and the parents who support them.
Her sessions focus on building a trusting relationship first. She collaborates with each person to set clear, practical goals. Therapy often uses cognitive-behavioral ideas alongside acceptance and mindfulness tools to change patterns and ease distress.
Veronica also brings motivational interviewing techniques when people are weighing change. Sessions look at strengths, habits, and small steps that fit day-to-day life. She encourages clients to try skills between meetings and to notice what helps.
People come to her when life feels overwhelming or when they want steady support through change. She emphasizes hope and practical progress rather than quick fixes. To begin, prospective clients fill out a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on values-driven actions. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and patterns like codependency because it shifts attention toward meaningful steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and teaches clear skills to change them. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress by breaking problems into manageable parts.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Veronica will explore your goals, needs, and preferences and together decide which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and may change as therapy progresses.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make therapy easier to fit into busy schedules, reduce commuting, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some formats use video for face-to-face work while others may use phone for brief conversations; ask which options are available and what might suit your routine and comfort.
