Veronica Dover Hoffman, LMFT

Veronica Dover Hoffman is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 27 years of clinical experience supporting individuals, couples, families, and children. She brings a warm, welcoming, and affirming presence to her work, guided by a client-centered perspective that prioritizes each person’s goals and lived experience.

Her practice addresses a broad range of concerns including partner relationship issues, parenting challenges, anxiety and depression, grief, trauma and abuse, coping with life changes, workplace stress, and self-esteem. Veronica has experience across the lifespan and has worked with clients of all ages, from young children to older adults. She is certified in Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), an evidence-informed approach that pairs parents and young children to address severe behavioral issues in ages 2 to 7, and she also holds a certificate focused on aging and geriatric issues.

Veronica blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused therapy to help clients understand how thoughts and feelings influence behavior and to identify practical changes that move people toward their goals. She also emphasizes life stages and development, helping clients see current struggles in the context of personal history and common developmental tasks. Recognizing how vulnerable seeking help can feel, Veronica aims to create a supportive space that honors the courage it takes to reach out and to foster the positive change clients seek.
