Bienvenidos! Welcome to Puentes de Resiliencia! Puentes de Resiliencia was created with the premise of creating therapy services with a cultural perspective in mind. We all navigate healing differently, but one thing that stays consistent is the notion that we do not have to endure it alone. Healing with community in mind is a strength based concept that further encourages the notion that as a community, we can transform and create bridges for success, bridges for healing, and bridges for resilience. As your therapist, I strive to provide a safe space for authenticity to ensure an open space for expression and healing.

Hi! I’m Vanessa Adan (she/her), a psychotherapy fellow at Roamers Therapy under the supervision of Raquel Hennessey MSW, LCSW. I understand how struggles can impact our well-being and day-to-day life. As a Latina and a child of immigrants, I know that seeking help can feel unfamiliar, in a culture where therapy is often misunderstood or met with stigma. Many of us were taught to push through hardships in silence, but healing doesn’t mean forgetting where we come from and erasing our past.I want to reassure you that it’s okay to challenge the unhealthy beliefs, to set boundaries, and to begin healing from generational trauma.
