About
I specialize in holistically treating anxiety, social anxiety, low self esteem, depression, grief, and existential issues such as finding purpose and meaning. My mission is to help clients transform pain into an opportunity for self-discovery, healing and empowerment, to ultimately reclaim their voice, purpose, and self-worth. I compassionately welcome individuals who feel silenced, disconnected from loved ones, overwhelmed, lost, or that they "don't belong," as well as people who have experienced bullying, emotional or physical abuse, or struggle with negative body image or a harsh inner critic.
I welcome diversity of all kinds. I'm multicultural and understand the complexities that arise with many identities. I'm also a musician, and enjoy helping individuals access their unique artistic and creative potential, whether through the arts or by embodying their truest expression of Self in everyday life.
I offer practical tools as well as deeper emotional healing to promote lasting change. My approach is compassionate, relational, holistic, and grounded in Gestalt, Emotion Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Transpersonal Psychology, mindfulness, and neurological research. Proveo terapia en español. Book a free consultation via my website.

Vanessa Wolter's Groups
Social Anxiety, Sensitivity, & Shyness Group
We have created this Social Anxiety, Sensitivity, & Shyness Group in the hopes of taking you on a unique journey of observation, exploration, and experimentation that will help you develop a new more adaptive relationship between your anxiety and your authentic self. Through the lens of Transpersonal Psychology, Psychosynthesis, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, Expressive Arts Therapy, and Gestalt, we will discover new things about ourselves and this fear of disapproval and overarousal that we all share in common. This is a holistic, integrative 10-week series. Email for more info.
