Veronica Price
You may be feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or unsure of how to move forward after difficult life experiences. Perhaps past trauma, relationship challenges, or major life transitions have left you feeling stuck, disconnected, or struggling with self-worth. You do not have to navigate these experiences alone. I became a therapist because I wanted individuals to feel truly seen, heard, respected, and valued—experiences I did not always have in my own early life. Being able to create that safe, validating, and empowering space for others is both my passion and my purpose. I have experience working in community mental health agencies, residential treatment facilities, and private practice. I work with individuals navigating trauma and PTSD, ADHD, anger management, domestic violence, relationship and intimate partner challenges, life transitions, sexual abuse recovery, disordered eating, and low self-esteem. I also support clients from diverse backgrounds, including those navigating multicultural identity, minority stress, and LGBTQ+ experiences. At Perspective Counseling & Consultation, my approach is collaborative, supportive, and client-centered. I integrate techniques such as EMDR-informed therapy, mindfulness practices, grounding and breathing exercises, progressive muscle relaxation, motivational interviewing, role-playing, exposure strategies, and cognitive-behavioral strategies. I also incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Hope Therapy, and Diabetical Therapy when appropriate. When meaningful to the client, I integrate music or faith-informed perspectives into sessions. I am EMDR-trained, have completed additional seminars on grief and loss, and continue trauma-focused education through the Trauma Institute. I am proud to be a Star Behavioral Health Provider Tier 3, working with military veterans to support their unique needs.

Find a therapist near you in Syracuse, Ohio
Finding a therapist near you in Syracuse, Ohio starts with matching to a licensed professional who fits your needs, schedule, and goals. Ohio is home to people with diverse mental health needs across urban, suburban, and rural communities, which can make it challenging to find care. BetterHelp connects you with a licensed therapist through tailored matching, so you can begin care from home or wherever works for you.
The network includes over 30,000 licensed therapists globally, and over 4 million people have used BetterHelp to find support through online therapy. During matching, 93% of user preferences are met, which helps you connect with a therapist suited to what you are looking for. Whether you are searching for help with anxiety, trauma, affordable or insurance covered therapy, weekend or flexible scheduling, or virtual sessions, you can find a therapist and get started when you are ready.
Why work with a licensed therapist near you?
Working with a licensed therapist near you gives you access to professional mental health support from someone trained to help you understand and manage what you are going through. A licensed therapist can offer evidence-based approaches, a steady space to talk, and guidance tailored to your situation. In Ohio, online therapy can make that care more accessible, since sessions happen from home or wherever you are, without the need to travel to an office. This can help if your schedule is full, if travel is difficult, or if you simply prefer a more discreet setting. You can learn more about what a therapist does on the therapist role page.
Online therapy can be especially helpful for people living across Ohio, where access to in-person mental health care may vary by location.
What concerns can therapists help with?
Therapists can help with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety and stress, depression, trauma and PTSD, self-esteem and identity, people-pleasing and fear of rejection, insomnia and racing thoughts, workplace stress and burnout, substance use, parenting and co-parenting stress, grief and loss, and relationship and family challenges. Therapists on BetterHelp may draw on approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), depending on your needs and goals.

In-person therapy takes place at an office and may involve travel and set appointment windows.

Both formats can support meaningful progress, so the right choice often comes down to what fits your life.
