About Veronique
Veronique Wallace is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Illinois. She brings eight years of clinical experience to her work and speaks English. Veronique describes herself as a compassionate listener who draws on personal experience with counseling to connect with people who are ready to talk.
Her practice focuses on everyday struggles like stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and parenting concerns. She also helps people facing trauma, addiction, anger, low self-esteem, and life transitions.
Background and approach
Additional concerns she addresses include caregiver stress, chronic illness, end-of-life issues, and workplace or multicultural challenges. Veronique uses several approaches in sessions, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. Sessions tend to emphasize practical steps, clearer thinking, and ways to manage strong emotions.
She also integrates faith when clients request support grounded in Christian belief and prayer. People who appreciate a calm, nonjudgmental listener often find her style approachable. She aims to help clients set simple goals and practice small changes between sessions.
Conversations are meant to feel respectful and steady rather than rushed. Her background includes a Master of Social Work from Aurora University and an Illinois LCSW credential. That combination shapes a practice that blends clinical methods with a straightforward, compassionate tone.
How her approaches shape online therapy
Veronique commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real-life evidence to change feelings and behavior. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and bring more calm to difficult moments.She also draws on Psychodynamic ideas to notice patterns that repeat over time and Solution-Focused techniques to set clear, achievable goals. Together these approaches help address issues like anxiety, depression, caregiver stress, grief, and parenting concerns by combining insight with practical steps.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. She works collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person’s needs, goals, and preferences. That conversation can occur in early sessions and be adjusted as progress is made.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also support continuity of care during life transitions and help people practice new skills between meetings.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Mindfulness Therapy
Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
Psychodynamic Therapy
Exploring how earlier relationships and patterns still shape the present, often over a longer stretch of time. It relies on conversation and reflection rather than exercises.
