About Jose
Jose Veiga is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom with eight years of professional experience. He is registered with the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Jose focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, identity concerns and life changes. He aims to offer respectful and compassionate support tailored to each person.
He takes an integrative approach and blends several methods to suit different needs. Sessions often centre on understanding attachment and emotional patterns. Jose also uses client-centred techniques to keep the conversation grounded in what matters to the client most.
When people bring issues such as addiction, eating concerns, codependency or relationship strain, he helps them explore patterns and practical next steps. He also works with mood concerns including depression and bipolar, and with identity-related matters such as LGBT and gender dysphoria questions.
Jose speaks English and Portuguese and is open to working with people beyond the UK. He asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire to get started. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and fees vary with location and therapist availability.
In sessions he aims to build a steady working relationship, notice repeating patterns, and try small experiments that can make daily life easier. The focus is on clear, practical conversations and on finding ways to move forward at a manageable pace.
How his approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy helps people see how early bonds shape current relationships. It looks at how patterns of closeness and distance repeat, and it can help with codependency, abandonment fears and relationship tension.Client-Centred Therapy puts the person's experience at the centre. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what is said, and supports clients to find their own solutions. This approach is useful for stress, low self-esteem and decisions about identity.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on feelings in the moment and how those feelings connect to relationship patterns. It can help people understand emotional triggers and practice new responses in everyday life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together they will try methods and adjust the plan if something is not fitting well.
Confirm the session formats available before booking as the biography does not specify them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example fitting a shorter check-in during a lunch break, using audio-only when bandwidth is low, or avoiding travel time. Registered professionals can often adapt exercises and mindfulness practices to an online setting so progress can continue between sessions.
