About Dr. Pannavat Veeraburinon
Diagnosed with ADHD and a learning disorder at age eight, Dr. Pannavat Veeraburinon credits the support he received in childhood with helping him move past suicidal thoughts and overwhelming anxiety - a personal history that shapes his compassionate approach to therapy. He goes by the nickname Palm and brings both professional training and lived experience to his practice. Dr. Veeraburinon is registered with the HCPC, the Health and Care Professions Council, which registers health and care professionals in the United Kingdom.
He completed a doctorate in Counselling Psychology at Glasgow Caledonian University after earning a master’s degree in Psychology from the University of Stirling. He also holds a certificate in Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) for Life from the Oxford Mindfulness Centre. As a fellow and mentor for the Dalai Lama Fellows program at the University of Virginia, he supported mind training practices aimed at resilience, self-awareness, and connection across differences. In a global advisory role he contributes to provider programming and culturally informed care for a major mental health organisation.
With five years of practice and more than 4,000 counselling sessions, Dr. Veeraburinon has worked with clients across ages and cultures - from children and adolescents to older adults, and from executives to parents. His multicultural heritage, rooted in Thai, Vietnamese, Laotian, and Chinese cultures, and his bilingual skills in English and Thai inform an adaptable, culturally sensitive style. He has supported people facing PTSD, OCD, ADHD, autism spectrum conditions, depression, burnout, high anxiety and a wide range of relational and life challenges.
Dr. Veeraburinon does not use a one-size-fits-all model. He draws on an integrated toolkit - including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, person-centred methods, Internal Family Systems, and mindfulness practices - to tailor therapy to each person’s needs. He aims to help clients uncover inner resources, gain clarity and purpose, and take practical steps toward a more fulfilling life, acting as an honest mirror while offering questions, reflections, and tools to support change.
