About Jose
Jose Veiga is a counsellor registered with the BACP who has eight years of professional experience in the UK. He focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression and trauma. He also works with people facing LGBT concerns, addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, and challenges such as ADHD and bipolar conditions.
Jose describes his work as collaborative and respectful. He tailors sessions to each person's situation and aims to create a calm space to talk through what matters most.
Background and approach
He approaches conversations with sensitivity and compassion so people can take practical steps forward. In the therapy room he draws on several methods to suit different needs. Client-Centred Therapy guides him to listen closely and follow the client’s pace.
Attachment-Based and Emotionally-Focused ideas help when people want to notice relationship patterns and manage strong feelings. He also uses Mindfulness and Psychodynamic approaches when these fit the goals. Mindfulness offers simple ways to notice thoughts and reduce reactivity.
Psychodynamic work looks at patterns that repeat over time and affect current choices. Sessions can address a wide range of concerns, including eating and body image, anger, ageing, chronic illness, codependency, gender dysphoria, and family problems. He speaks English and Portuguese and is available to work with international clients.

How these approaches can work online
Attachment-Based work focuses on patterns in close relationships and helps people notice how past experiences affect current bonds; it can be useful for problems with trust, abandonment and intimacy. Client-Centred Therapy centres on the person’s own pace and priorities, offering a respectful listening space that supports self-reflection and clearer choices. Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at the feelings behind conflicts and supports people to name emotions and change unhelpful interaction cycles.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful. Together they will try methods that match the client’s needs and adjust the plan as work unfolds so therapy stays practical and relevant.
The original biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits. Some people find video useful for face-to-face interaction, while others prefer audio for lower bandwidth or to avoid being on camera. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists listed on this site, can explain which format may work best for your situation and schedule.
