Great to meet you!

Hello! I'm Vanessa, a licensed professional clinical counselor in the state of CA. I obtained my Masters of Educational Counseling from the University of La Verne and was a K-12 counselor for 6 years, then spent the next 6 years obtaining my therapeutic license. I have worked at various agencies with clients as young as 6 and as old as 60. Currently, I provide telehealth services and work primarily with adults, young adults and older teens.

My approach to therapy

I specialize in cognitive behavior, dialectical behavior, and schema therapy as well as personal sexual growth, intimacy, sexual expression, and work intimately within the kink community. The clients that would benefit most from my expertise are those who struggle with expression, acceptance of oneself, and/or struggle to voice their needs and boundaries.

What you can expect from me

Here you will challenge your personal concerns, learn mental health skills, increase your insight and perspective, and better understand yourself and your place in the world. You will find compassion, empathy, and a non-judgmental approach.
