Hey! Much gratitude and appreciation that you stopped by. Are you dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, low self esteem? Do you sometimes wonder how you will make it through the day? Heartbreak? Trauma? I am a skilled psychotherapist who believes that my job is to meet each individual where they are by looking at the whole person in order to get them to where they want to be. I believe that change is made through establishing nonjudgmental, supportive and healthy relationships. My focus is to create a collaborative, warm and comfortable environment in which clients feel safe to explore their "TRUTHS".

Making the decision to begin or continue counseling can feel like a vulnerable and challenging process for a person and entire family.

Vanessa uses her professional and personal experience and knowledge to assist individuals and families in moving towards their goals.

I have many years of experience working with early childhood trauma and severe, persistent mental illness, varying from ages of 5 years to 70+. My goal is to empower and advocate for positive change within you, as the individual, and the system as a whole. The place that we will create together is a safe and judgement free space. I work through an Existential foundation, to help those I work with seek meaning and purpose, with skills built from experience with Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and Cognitive Behavior Therapy, all within the context of a trauma-informed approach.

Life is a series of transitions - some peaks and some valleys. I find these valleys often are a result of internal conflict and external events or pressure. I believe that we all have an authentic self and much of the internal conflict comes from living inauthentically, which develops into maladaptive behaviors. There’s “the way it seems” and “the way it is,” and sometimes we all need someone to remind us of “the way it is.” That’s where I come in - my goals are to work TOGETHER with you to navigate a new path toward living your most authentic life and finding inner peace and confidence to be that person.

I love to work with people who are new to counseling or ready to work through their problems. They are ready to commit to bettering their life. I love working with clients that have had trouble with other therapists judging them or not giving them the opportunity to grow. I enjoy helping to show them that there is more to counseling than that.

Hello! Welcome to the first step in making change. I hope that you're proud of yourself for being here.

Whether your goal is to take small steps to improve your overall wellbeing or work towards large life changes, I would love to join you in your journey.
