About Jose
Jose Veiga is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with eight years of professional experience.

Jose draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside attachment-based and client-centred ideas to help people understand their feelings and relationships. He uses straightforward, conversational methods so people can talk through what matters to them without jargon.

He also supports people dealing with addiction, relationship and intimacy-related problems, eating and body image concerns, anger, and problems with self‑esteem.
Additional areas Jose pays attention to include attachment difficulties, abandonment, codependency, dissociation, chronic illness and disability, gender dysphoria, and problems arising from family dynamics. He aims to listen closely and work with whatever a person brings to the room. Jose uses mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas when they help make sense of patterns and emotional responses.

Online support
How approach and online therapy come together
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and naming core feelings and how they shape relationships and personal responses. It can help when patterns of disconnection, loss or repeated emotional reactions feel overwhelming.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds influence current trust, closeness and coping. It aims to make sense of long-standing patterns so people can try different ways of relating and regulating emotion.
Client-Centred Therapy gives people space to be heard with warmth and acceptance, and helps them lead the pace and focus of sessions. It is useful for building self‑trust and exploring what matters most to the individual.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals and preferences. Treatment plans are adjusted as progress and priorities become clearer.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls recreate face-to-face contact and are useful for in-depth work, while phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins and ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments.
