About Veronique
Veronique Wallace is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Illinois with eight years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, caregiver strain, and end-of-life concerns among other issues. She also supports those dealing with relationship problems, parenting strain, addiction, and life transitions.
Wallace draws on practical therapy methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness to help people notice patterns of thought and behavior. She also uses psychodynamic and solution-focused ideas when they fit the problem at hand. Sessions typically involve talking through current problems, identifying unhelpful thoughts or habits, and trying small, concrete changes between meetings.
Her background includes a Master of Social Work from Aurora University and licensure in Illinois as an LCSW. She has experience working with hospice and caregiver issues and with people facing chronic illness or aging-related concerns. She states a particular history of supporting Christian clients who wish to integrate faith and prayer into coping strategies.
In sessions she listens and responds without judgment. She notes personal experience with seeking counseling, which she says informs her approach to vulnerability and trust. People who want straightforward, practical work on mood, anxiety, grief, or caregiving stress may find this approach useful.

How her methods translate to online sessions
Veronique commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in straightforward ways. CBT focuses on recognizing thought patterns and testing small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression. Mindfulness Therapy uses brief attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and help people notice stress without immediately reacting.Choosing the best approach is collaborative. She will talk with the client about goals, try practical strategies, and adjust the plan based on what helps. That process involves reviewing what is working and changing tasks or techniques as needed.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example a short check-in during a lunch break, avoiding travel time, or using a phone call when video is difficult. These practical benefits help people keep up with regular meetings and try the small, concrete exercises discussed in sessions.
