About Veronique
Veronique Wallace is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Illinois with eight years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, anger, parenting concerns, relationship and family challenges, and life transitions. She also addresses caregiver strain, chronic illness, end-of-life concerns, and workplace issues.
Wallace uses straightforward conversation and practical tools in sessions. She listens closely and helps people name what feels overwhelming. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness techniques to spot thinking patterns and to practice calmer responses in the moment.
Her background includes a Master of Social Work from Aurora University and clinical practice since 2013. Those years include work with hospice and caregiving situations, which informs how she supports people facing loss and chronic health challenges.
For people of Christian faith she offers faith-informed support when requested, including using scripture and prayer as part of sessions. That is an option she offers to those who want it rather than a requirement for care.
Sessions aim to identify immediate coping steps and clearer next actions. Wallace combines short-term solution-focused work with deeper psychodynamic and mindfulness practices when helpful. People who want practical strategies for anger, daily stress, or anxiety tend to find this style direct and focused.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Veronique commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in her clinical work. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical behavioral changes, which helps with anger, anxiety, and depression. Mindfulness Therapy trains awareness of bodily sensations and emotions so reactions are less automatic and calmer responses are easier to practice.She also draws on psychodynamic ideas when useful to look at longer-standing patterns that influence how a person reacts. That approach helps when repeated relationship conflicts or persistent anger trace back to old beliefs or experiences. Choosing which methods to use is a collaborative process; the therapist will discuss goals and preferences and adapt the plan as sessions progress.
Confirm the exact online session formats before booking, as session options are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people practice mindfulness or behavioral assignments between meetings so skills build in daily life.
