The most important thing you can do for yourself is to know and live your truth as much as possible. Together we can embark on a journey to discover this truth. My name is Veronica Paris and I am a Bilingual/Bicultural Licensed Independent Social Worker and a Integrative Mental Health Coach in Massachusetts. I have over 15 years of experience working with individuals, families, children and adolescents in outpatient mental health and school settings. I draw from my experience as a yoga teacher and health coach to expand my psychotherapy toolbox to help my clients unravel their unique connection between mind and body.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In the course of our work together, we will identify the challenges you are facing, as well as the personal and professional goals you want to achieve - where you want to be in a month, a year, five years, etc. Throughout our conversation, we'll identify options and strategies to help you achieve your goals! The session will also allow you to gain a better understanding of the mind-body connection issues you are currently facing while focusing on what you can do right now to resolve them.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
It is my goal to meet my clients where they are, which means using a variety of approaches that can be customized to best meet their needs. Some of the approaches I use in my sessions are somatic therapy, solution-focused, strength-based, CBT and trauma-informed yoga.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My view of therapy is that it treats the whole person, not just parts of it. It is not only the symptoms that may have brought you here that need to be considered. It is my goal to help you regulate the system (mind, body, and spirit) by providing you with new coping skills, challenging unhelpful thinking patterns, and helping you understand your unique brain. Over the past 15 years, I have been assisting my clients to feel more in control of how they feel and how they choose to express their emotions to feel more fulfilled on a daily basis.
