Vanessa takes a holistic approach to counseling, considering the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. While she does not push faith, she recognizes the role of personal values in the healing process and strives to create a space where clients feel heard, valued, and supported.
Vanessa is happily married and loves spending time outdoors and on the water with her husband and family. She enjoys serving in her church and community and finds joy in meaningful conversations and connections.
Please note that all HCC therapists are contractors, therefore they set and determine their own schedules, specializations, and hours. HCC will help communication between clients and therapists, but scheduling is at the discretion of each individual therapist.
