History

Established in 2009.

I specialize in relationships. Whether you are a couple struggling because of communication issues or infidelity, or a single person who just can’t seem to pick the «right» partners, I help my clients learn the skills necessary to be successful in relationships. In my practice, I teach people the «yoga of relationships» by using mindfulness practices, conscious communication and the art of empathy.

In my clinical experience, I have helped hundreds of couples achieve greater security and intimacy. I can help you learn the tools necessary to build the thriving connections that you desire to have with your significant other.

I hold a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from California State University, Fullerton and a Bachelor’s in Psychology from the University of California, Irvine. I received specialized training in couple’s therapy and somatic-​attachment theory.

Meet the Business Owner

Vanessa C.

Business Owner

Hello and thank you for taking the time to read about my philosophy for healing relationships. There are two basic tenets that inform my work:

Foremost, I believe there is the most room for connection in all relationships when the self is fully known. Sometimes past relationships with parents or former partners color the way we see current partners, children or ourselves. I help my clients to find meaning in their current relational struggles by untangling the past from the present. This insight empowers my clients to find their most authentic self.

Additionally, I believe that the one of the greatest challenges of life is to find balance between two poles. Some people have a logical «thinking» worldview, while other’s are more focused on their emotional world. I help my clients to integrate these two ways of navigating the world for optimal psychological health.
