Nashville, Tennessee therapist: Veronica Holmes, marriage and family therapist
Serving Black / African American

Veronica Holmes

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Online therapy has been shown to be an effective form of therapy. While in-person therapy is more ideal, issues such as scheduling, traffic, and other constraints prevent in-person sessions from being a viable option. The first session may feel a bit awkward. However, my clients find that once they get started, the virtual sessions don't get in the way of their treatment. I offer sessions on a secure network with therapists in mind. I work to be sure my client's feel as comfortable as possible virtually by reminding them to create a comfortable space for themselves, maybe having a box of tissues, etc. Therapy can be done in a closet, while parked in a car, or sitting at a park as long as there aren't distractions. Virtual sessions are a way to get your needs met without the usual obstacles.

I value a strong therapeutic relationship grounded in empathy, honesty, and mutual engagement.

Trauma is profound: it shapes how we organize our experiences, relate to other people, and respond to life's ebbs and flows. It can also leave us feeling stuck and painfully limited. Together we can make sense of your story, identify unconscious patterns that no longer suit you, and create room in your mind to live with greater freedom. If you're looking to effect deep change in your life, I welcome you to reach out for a free consultation.
