About Veronica
Veronica Carter is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 10 years of experience based in Louisiana. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship strain, addiction, grief, sleep problems, anger, and issues related to self-esteem and career changes. Veronica also supports people coping with life transitions and offers coaching-style guidance when helpful.
Her approach is client-centered and strength-based. She focuses on identifying the thoughts and patterns that keep someone stuck. Sessions involve talking through situations, practicing skills, and trying small, practical changes between meetings.
Veronica draws on established therapies including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). These methods are used to address trauma, emotion regulation, and unhelpful thinking patterns. She blends discussion with hands-on exercises and homework when it fits the client’s goals.
People come to her for many concerns, such as codependency, control issues, communication problems, caregiver stress, blended family challenges, and recovery from domestic violence or divorce. She also works with issues like abandonment, attachment concerns, avoidant or dependent personality features, and disruptive mood dysregulation disorder among adults affected by these patterns.
Sessions are offered in English. Veronica uses a subscription payment model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session through the site’s online options.
How Veronica uses ACT, CBT and DBT online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is often used when someone wants to reduce avoidance and live more in line with what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and testing negative thoughts and building practical skills to change behavior. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and anger. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills that help manage intense feelings and improve communication.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Veronica will discuss options and decide together which methods fit the client’s goals, needs, and preferences. That collaborative process can involve trying techniques in-session and adjusting the plan as progress is made.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example they can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a workday, or let someone avoid camera use when that helps them focus. Licensed professionals use these formats to keep sessions practical and to help clients apply skills in everyday situations.
