Veronica Tunnah, BACP

Veronica Tunnah offers support for people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. She speaks plainly and aims to create a calm, caring space where difficult feelings can be talked through. Veronica holds a BACP registration and is based in the United Kingdom.

Veronica uses a compassionate, person-centred way of working. She focuses on helping people notice what comes up in sessions and build trust in their own responses. The work is paced to each person - sometimes practical steps are explored, and sometimes the emphasis is on listening and understanding.

Her practice also addresses related concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, caregiver stress, chronic pain and illness, and post-traumatic stress. Communication problems, divorce and separation, guilt, shame and issues around life purpose are also within her scope.

Sessions may help with practical problems like money stress or impulsivity, and with emotional issues such as isolation or midlife questions. Veronica aims to help people feel less overwhelmed and more able to manage day-to-day pressures.

People who choose to work with her can expect an approachable, non-judgemental counsellor who values care and compassion. She encourages gentle exploration of feelings and supports people to find ways of coping that suit their situation.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Veronica works from an evidence-based perspective that centres on the person in front of her. One approach she may use focuses on helping people sit with and understand their feelings in relation to past events and current stressors. This can be useful for trauma, grief or ongoing anxious states and helps people make sense of what keeps repeating for them.

Another approach emphasises practical coping strategies to reduce daily stress and manage symptoms of anxiety or low mood. These short, actionable steps can include breathing and grounding techniques, structured check-ins and planning small behavioural changes to improve routine and sleep.

Finding the right method is part of the work. Veronica will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their needs, goals and preferences. She adjusts the pace and mix of reflection and practical tools so the approach feels useful and manageable.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for a fuller face-to-face conversation, while phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or messaging lets people check in between sessions or have shorter, more frequent conversations. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, caregiving or health limitations.
