My experience working with Vanessa has been incredibly rewarding. When I first started I was struggling with high anxiety and panic attacks. My personal life and work life were chaotic and I felt agitated. Through our Somatic Experiencing and TRE sessions, I started to feel hope for the first time in years. Not only have I learned skills to work with and understand my anxiety, I have experienced what feels like a re-wiring of my nervous system, where the things that used to trigger me no longer do. Thank you Vanessa, for your awesome guidance and support!

I have been working with Vanessa throughout this entire pandemic this past year and I can honestly say I don't know how I would have gotten through it without her. She has taught me new ways to cope with stress, and has helped me learn to find loving compassion towards myself. I am so grateful for Vanessa, and I look forward to each week as a sacred space for healing, growth, and understanding. She is simply the best.

Vanessa truly knows how to listen in a way that makes me feel heard and understood. She is skilled at meeting me where I am and helping me find clarity in my direction in life. Our coaching sessions have changed my life! I'm better at home, at work, and for myself.

From my first appointment with Vanessa, I started a journey of healing that I never imagined possible. Living with PTSD, I had years of work doing traditional talk therapy, with little improvement. A friend recommended I try a "bottom-up" somatic approach with Vanessa, and I am so glad I took the leap. She has supported me in working through past trauma in such a way that I don't have to relive the painful memories, and although it isn't always easy, I look forward to our sessions every week, and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking to resolve their trauma.

I feel so lucky to have found Vanessa when I did. She helped me tremendously after my mothers death when I was really struggling. Vanessa supported me every step of the way with my grief and helped me find healthier ways of coping. I feel so grateful to have her on my support team!

Vanessa’s approach of working through trauma with Somatic Experiencing, Internal Family Systems, and TRE was new to me, but after our first few sessions all my skepticism disappeared as I found myself sleeping better, feeling less reactive with my family and friends, and generally finding more pleasure in my life.
