I absolutely love Verena. I got so lucky and couldn’t ask fir a better therapist. She listens, respects, and knows me so well now.

I’ve now been with Verena for a year and she’s been a savior! She’s patient, kind, but also an awesome stern support system. I left BetterHelp for about 2 months and ended up coming right back. She’s always been there for me and responds so quickly. I have absolutely no complaints just so much gratitude.

Hi. My name is Verena Coes and I consider myself a clinical social worker of many traits and skills. I would like to share that I have been able to work in my country Germany in residential facilities many years ago, which is where I started my career in 1998 and learned a lot about mental health, disorders and how it affects one's life in many ways. I traveled with the military to different duty stations in the US and worked in different entities expanding my expertise and professional skills over time. I would like to help and assist those who are looking to improve their mental health. I believe that I can be a supportive and therapeutic interventionist to you while you may be dealing with adjustment disorders, mood disorders, psychotic disorders, anxiety and depression.

I prefer working with Florida residents or US citizens outside of the US due to my licensing requirements and liability reasons - I hope this is understandable.

I look forward to working with you !

About online counseling

Affordable.: Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.: Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.: There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
