Getting to know Veronica Vargas-Paredes

Hi there, I'm Veronica! My name is Veronica Vargas-Paredes. I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) and bicultural Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 25 years of clinical experience working with diverse populations in a variety of settings including community mental health, schools, university counseling centers, private practice, and within medical facilities. I also hold a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology. I provide bilingual, culturally responsive psychotherapy to adults who are dealing with Anxiety, Depression, Relational Issues, and Life Adjustments. I firmly believe that clients are the experts of their lives and that through a collaborative and holistic approach, we can work together toward healing and growth. My approach My approach to therapy is an eclectic one that is tailored to each individual client based on their needs and goals. I have been trained in several different theoretical approaches. The ones that I use more frequently in my clinical work are Person-Centered Therapy, Strength-Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Problem-Solving Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, and Trauma Focused. My focus My primary client focus is working with adults who are dealing with Anxiety, Depression, Relational Issues, Life Adjustments as well as Self-Esteem Issues, Grief and Loss, and Women's Issues. My focus is on helping clients identify coping skills to manage their symptoms and improve their overall well-being. My communication style Being in therapy can be an anxiety-provoking experience. My hope is that my clients feel seen, heard, and respected at every session. My communication style is warm, empathic, and non-judgmental while also being direct. I make every effort to provide a safe space for my clients where they can explore and process their thoughts and feelings openly.
