About Veronica

Veronica Onsurez-Pannell is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 25 years in behavioral health. She focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by depression, trauma, relationship struggles, or problems with substance use. Veronica brings a calm, accepting presence to sessions and aims to make it easier to talk about hard things.

She works in a warm, collaborative way and listens first to understand each person's situation. Then she and the client identify practical steps to address immediate concerns. Sessions involve clear, doable strategies rather than long lists of theory.

Veronica's background includes long experience with trauma, post-traumatic stress, and mood disorders. She also addresses process addictions such as problematic gambling or porn use, and helps people navigating divorce, impulsivity, or career and life-purpose questions. Her experience includes care for multicultural and veteran and armed forces issues.

Veronica offers counseling in both English and Spanish. She encourages people to name what feels hard and to build on strengths they already have. Over years of practice she has focused on supporting steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Therapeutic approaches and how they fit online

Veronica uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that aim to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. One common approach focuses on addressing trauma and post-traumatic stress by helping people make sense of upsetting memories and build skills to manage intense reactions. This work is often practical and skill-based to help with sleep, mood, and flashbacks.

Another approach targets addictive and compulsive behaviors by identifying triggers, building alternative coping habits, and creating step-by-step plans to interrupt harmful patterns. This method emphasizes clear goals and small changes that add up over time.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your priorities and try methods that suit your needs and preferences. Together you can adjust the plan if something does not feel like the right fit.

Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online care can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and offer access from different locations. Licensed professionals can tailor online work to focus on skills practice, emotional processing, and practical planning so therapy fits into everyday life.
