Hello, I am Vanessa. I have been in the mental health field for over 13+ years. I've worked in a variety of settings with a vast array of individuals and couples. Throughout my life I have been told that I am a "good listener"; I will sit with you and listen to what you want to be heard. I love mental wellness; it is a lifelong practice and journey.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

During our first session, we'll build rapport. I will ask about any presenting concerns, or what has brought you to therapy. After our first session I want to give you the freedom to reflect on how comfortable you feel talking to me, and for you to decide the future of your treatment.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

As a provider, I offer empathy, compassion, and understanding. I have worked with children and adults and have come to realize that having someone to talk to can make a world of difference. I accept individuals where they are in life.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I am able to work with individuals that need motivation, expression of feelings/emotions, feel lonely in life, stuck in life, dealing with anxiety or sadness, or having relationship troubles. I can sit and listen while offering support, or we can work on tools and techniques to utilize.
