About Vanessa
I’m a licensed therapist serving clients across New York, Connecticut, and New Jersey. I work with individuals navigating depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, addiction, and self-esteem challenges. I also specialize in supporting those with personality disorders and mood disorders.
My approach is grounded in compassion and cultural responsiveness. I’m committed to creating a therapeutic space where you feel seen, heard, and respected for who you are. I draw on evidence-based practices to help you build insight, resilience, and meaningful change at your own pace.
I’m fluent in Spanish and English, which allows me to serve a broader community with authenticity and ease. Whether you’re seeking support for a specific concern or navigating complex emotions, I’m here to walk alongside you with genuine care and professional expertise.
Starting therapy takes courage, and I’m honored to be part of your journey toward healing and growth.
