Background & experience

Originally from the Czech Republic, Veronika moved to New Zealand in 2009. Her postgraduate studies include behavioural therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), and specialised training in alcohol and drug counselling.

Her professional experience spans a variety of therapeutic and care settings, including support for older people and people with autism, work in prison environments, and work with people experiencing significant mental health challenges.

Her approach

In her private practice, Veronika combines EFT and CBT in an approach she describes as emotional psychology. Her focus is on exploring emotional patterns, working collaboratively and developing practical tools for everyday life.

She brings compassion, curiosity and attention to personal responsibility to this work, with an emphasis on understanding each person’s individual experience.
