Hi, I'm Veronica. Pull up a chair. Get comfy. 

If you've felt alone in your grief or concerned about life ahead, you are very welcome.

​

Here, you will find gentle support without pressure or timelines. ​​

"Working with Veronica has been one of the safest and most transformative experiences of my life." - Alys, Psychotherapist

We begin where you are

People come to me with different forms of grief,  and grief is such a personal journey. Often, the people who find me have experienced a loss that makes life feel like before and after, or they're carrying grief and major change that feels like a lot to hold alone. This could be a death, someone no longer being in your life or a life transition.

 

Some people come to me having tried and felt the limits of mainstream grief counselling, and sometimes I support therapists themselves. What I offer is different to most grief support: unhurried, rooted in lived experience, and deeply human. I am here for you in your grieving process and it would be my privilege to accompany you as you find your way in life as it is now. Consider this your soft place land, no matter how long your grief has been with you.

​

Below are the different ways that you can choose to work with me and all of my work is trauma-informed.

 

You and your story are unique and so we begin where you are.

​

I would love to talk you through how we could work together. If something in this speaks to you, you're welcome to book a free introductory call held in confidence, where we can explore what you need and whether we are a good fit.

"What sets Veronica apart is her genuine compassion and ability to create a safe space where I feel truly heard." -  Josie, Director

Grief support

We meet weekly or fortnightly for 75 minutes - either in nature, your home, a therapy room or online - and we explore what you're living with. You choose what to speak about each session, no matter how big, small, deep or messy it is. You may arrive some weeks feeling hopeful and other weeks tender. We will meet what feels difficult together and support you with life as it is now - staying connected to what matters to you in life. Grief was never meant to be a solo journey or a problem to fix. We heal in relationship with another person who understands, where all parts of our grief are welcome.

Breathwork

1 hour 45 minute sessions, either regularly or one-off, where we work with your breath. Science has shown that breathwork helps us process what's happened in our life in a way that words do not. This is because our breath is the bridge between our body, mind and nervous system - and our bodies often carry things that our mind hasn't resolved, while sometimes our bodies hold onto grief even after we've grieved. My sessions use conscious connected breathwork (CCB), which involves breathing with a continuous breath pattern. You practice this lying down with music as a journey. I will guide you and support you to pace your breathwork in a way that feels right for you, meaning you are always in control. Breathwork can be transformative for many people - bringing lightness, clarity and a deeper connection to themselves and life.

Kind words

"Working with Veronica has been one of the safest and most transformative experiences of my life. As someone living with complex trauma and chronic illness, I have come to understand that safety is the foundation of healing. Veronica offers a level of presence, attunement and emotional accompaniment unlike anything I have ever experienced.
​
I have felt deeply seen, gently held and supported to meet the most vulnerable parts of myself without ever feeling rushed, judged or overwhelmed.​ There is a quiet wisdom about Veronica that is difficult to put into words. She has an extraordinary capacity to know when to guide, when to witness and when to simply be present. Her work feels deeply embodied, grounded in integrity and held with exceptional care. 
​
Working with Veronica has helped me reconnect with parts of myself I never imagined I could reach. I can honestly say she has been a profound companion in my healing, and I feel immensely grateful to know her. She is a rare and gifted practitioner, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a truly safe, compassionate and deeply skilled guide." 
​
Alys, Psychotherapist

"I came to breathwork with some uncertainty about what to expect, but what I experienced was profound. Breathwork has brought me a deep connection to my own emotions and a genuine sense of love for the people in my life, something that has touched me in a way I hadn't anticipated. My nervous system feels completely reset, and that quietness has stayed with me long after.

 

What struck me most was how held and safe I felt throughout, especially considering that Veronica and I worked together online. Veronica is very intuitive; she seems to know exactly what I need in each moment, which has allowed me to fully sink into the breathwork without hesitation. The gentleness and warmth she brings at the close of the session has helped ease me back into myself beautifully. She is attentive and caring in guiding me back to the present, and offers thoughtful, practical guidance on how to integrate the experience into my daily life.

 

Thanks to breathwork, I feel grounded, open, and reconnected to something essential in myself. I couldn't recommend Veronica more highly."

"I have had multiple breathwork sessions with Veronica and I have experienced something new and unexpected in each session. I felt guided and supported, particularly as someone who had never tried breathwork before and did not know what to anticipate.​Veronica was in tune with my experience throughout, understanding when to give pointers and when to let my journey take its own shape. Breathwork has been very beneficial and I have felt the positive effects long after the sessions. I would recommend Veronica to anyone!"

 
Michael, Digital Designer
"Veronica is a very skilled and intuitive breathwork practitioner. Her use of touch has been profound and healing and she has been really in tune with what I've needed throughout different parts of our sessions together. I have felt real shifts since the breathwork sessions, and my intentions going into breathwork seem to be permeating into life already. I am deeply grateful to Veronica for holding space for me so beautifully and safely."
