What Vanessa says about the work
Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.
I'm a therapist dedicated to supporting individuals through life's most challenging transitions and concerns. With extensive clinical experience, I've developed a deep understanding of stress, anxiety, grief, and eating disorders, as well as ADHD-related challenges.
I work with young adults navigating communication difficulties, questions about life purpose, social anxiety, and seasonal affective patterns. I also specialize in supporting those struggling with eating and food-related concerns.
My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices and a genuine commitment to meeting you where you are. I create a therapeutic space that honors your values and perspective, free from judgment. I believe in the power of open dialogue and collaboration-working together to help you build meaningful connections, clarify your direction, and develop practical tools for managing life's complexities.
Whether you're facing a specific challenge or seeking support during a significant life transition, I'm here to listen, understand, and walk alongside you with compassion and authenticity. I'm honored to be part of your healing journey.

03 · What happens next
From this page to a first session
Vanessa practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence,
written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of
Vanessa's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.
A questionnaire, not a booking form
BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from
therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Vanessa at this point.
Naming Vanessa specifically
BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Vanessa is a step you have to
take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch
afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to
Vanessa.
If the caseload is full
You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is
easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.
The first conversation
A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried,
what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.
If the fit is wrong
Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is
common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference
between a platform and a private practice.
04 · Before you commit
2 questions worth asking Vanessa
Built from what Vanessa actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic.
Maker Therapy's, not Vanessa's - Vanessa has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer
any of them.
“With 16 years in, what has changed most in how you work?”
Long experience is only an advantage if it has been examined. This tends to surface whether it has.
“How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”
On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.

Where every line on this page came from
Vanessa's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography
are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 9 Oct 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.
The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are
written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.
Maker Therapy is not BetterHelp, does not take bookings, and has not met Vanessa. There are no reviews
or ratings on this page because we have no way to verify one. If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
