Hi there, I’m Vanessa. A licensed mental health professional who focuses on meeting clients where they are and we work together to find meaningful evidence-based approaches to promote emotional well-being. Do you feel overwhelmed, stressed out, worried, fearful, or maybe you are trying to deal with anxiety or an addiction. I am here to help. I utilize a combination of therapeutic modalities but place an emphasis on Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Mindfulness-based techniques and Acceptance Therapy. These strategies are used in order to assist individuals in reducing limiting beliefs. Together, we can identify what's not working and get you back to balance. We'll use a whole self-approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit. I have a passion for helping individuals, couples, and families, to cope with anxiety, addiction, depression, interpersonal conflict, relational problems, stressors, and trauma. I am committed to providing you with a safe and supportive space to explore and address life issues so that you become empowered to bring about positive life changes.
You can feel comfortable knowing that you will be provided a safe space for open and honest discussion of your challenges, symptoms and concerns. You will be treated with respect and provided with evidence base treatment options to address your concerns.
I am a great listener with a non-judgmental attitude who works with the client to provide treatment options that will allow them to address their concerns and begin the path to change.
I accept clients ages 18 -90 to assist them in gaining the practical coping skills and techniques to effectively manage anxiety, stress, regulate emotions, and navigate challenging life situations.

Hands down one of the best therapists I've worked with. Insightful, experienced with military and diverse backgrounds, understanding, directly in a friendly way, and gives you what you need: an immediate idea to try or homework to contemplate. She can listen to something you say and quickly pinpoint a root cause. Great therapist.

Vanessa was very professional. She was also very straightforward, which is what I needed. I’m looking forward to healing with her and getting the coping skills that I need to move forward with my life.
