My website
Hi, I’m Vanessa, a Registered Provisional Psychologist. I work with children, teens, and adults who are navigating anxiety, stress, major life changes, or difficult experiences. I have a particular interest in working with the immigrant population who may be balancing different cultures, family expectations, identities, and the process of adjusting to a new environment. I also work with individuals who are coping with the emotional and psychological effects of motor vehicle accidents.
An accident can affect much more than physical health, and I support clients who are dealing with anxiety, changes in daily life, driving concerns, or pain-related stress. With children and teens, I use age-appropriate creative approaches to make therapy feel more natural and relevant to them.
My style is conversational, collaborative, and thoughtful. I want therapy to feel meaningful and tailored to the person sitting in front of me. I speak Tagalog and English

I work with children, teens, and individuals recovering from motor vehicle accidents. In our sessions, we focus on what's been feeling difficult and find ways to support you moving forward. For children, this may look like play-based work. For teens and adults, it's a space to talk openly, build coping strategies, and begin to feel more like yourself again.

I use a mix of play-based therapy, CBT, solution-focused therapy, narrative therapy, and EMDR in my practice. In your first session, we'll talk about what brought you in and find an approach that fits your needs. With children, this may look like play. With teens and adults, we'll explore thoughts, emotions, and experiences, while building ways to cope, process, and support meaningful change.
