About Velery
Velery Fasano-Gilman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, mood concerns, relationship strain, grief, and trauma. Her work often addresses problems like anger, caregiver stress, isolation, and social anxiety.
She has worked in a range of settings, including counseling centers, shelters, and psychiatric hospitals. Those experiences shaped a practical approach to everyday problems. She aims to make therapy a straightforward place to talk and to try things that can help right away.
Background and approach
Velery creates a space where people can name what they are feeling and think through next steps. Sessions are conversational and centered on the person in front of her. She listens without judgment and helps clients set small, clear goals.
Her methods draw on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, and client-centered work to address thoughts, emotions, and behavior. She also uses skills from dialectical behavior therapy and relationship-focused techniques when helpful. Velery supports people coping with life changes, feelings of abandonment, guilt, and trouble communicating.
She helps people build self-love, manage impulsivity, and repair relationship patterns. If someone is dealing with grief, trauma, or persistent anxiety, she focuses on practical steps to improve daily functioning and sense of control.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Velery uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and choose actions that match their values. ACT is often useful for persistent anxiety, avoidance, and finding a clearer sense of purpose. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another common tool she uses to identify unhelpful thought patterns and test new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce symptoms like worry and low mood.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Velery works with each person to figure out which methods fit their situation, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so the plan stays relevant and doable for the client.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls let people see facial cues and do longer check-ins, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or movement is a concern. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, skill prompts, or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep consistent progress over time.
