Veronica Torres
MA Counselor (Bilingual)
Hello! I am a bilingual counselor here at Beyond Healing. I received my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Governors State University. I am passionate about working with children, adolescents, adults, and couples. I also have experience providing counseling services both in person and virtual.
When working with clients I use a Person-Centered theoretical lens, multicultural sensitivity, strengths-based approach. I use Gottman and Emotion Focused Theory when working with couples. I work collaboratively with clients in assessing their needs. I help clients to identify goals to accomplish in counseling, and organize them into easier to obtain steps. As a counselor, I use warmth, understanding, mindfulness, compassion, and humor to create a comfortable therapeutic environment. I’m excited to join you in your counseling journey and help you discover your strengths and guide you in self-discovery and personal growth.
My specialties include working with presenting issues such as: depression, anxiety, women’s issues, navigating cultural issues, self-esteem, family conflict, life transitions and adjustments, trauma, divorce, marital/relationship issues, boundary setting, work-life balance, career issues, parenting issues, grief and loss, communication and stress.
