Vanessa Garcia

My clients describe me as:

Real, honest, and accepting. Hopefully fun too!

Something to know about my approach is:

I am trained in several approaches, including Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance/Commitment Therapy. With these approaches, we can work together to find a balance between making changes in your life and practicing acceptance.

Together, we will:

Explore current challenges in your life and figure out new ways to manage these challenges using proven skills and tools. We will also explore your values- what is important to you?

I specialize in working with people who:

Are young adults facing a big change in their life- graduating, a breakup, a loss, or simply "adulting"- and are feeling confused, anxious, and overwhelmed. I help my clients reconnect to their values and and gain clarity on how to move forward.

I became a therapist because:

I wanted to be the therapist I never had as a teenager and young adult. I truly enjoy helping others gain clarity and regain hope.

More about me and my practice:

I know how difficult it can be to start therapy, yet it is so incredibly worth it. I offer free 15 minute phone consultations so we can get to know each other.
