About Vanessa

Vanessa Glatt is an LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor licensed in California and Minnesota with nine years of clinical experience. She has worked with people dealing with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, grief, and substance addiction, and lists family and parenting among her focus areas. Vanessa often uses mindfulness and thinking skills to help people manage stress and reconnect with a steadier sense of self.

Her style is straightforward and practical. She listens without judging and helps people notice thoughts and feelings in the moment. Then she offers simple strategies to reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning. Sessions include attention to how physical habits and mental patterns interact.

Vanessa draws on several approaches to fit each person's needs. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice values and take action. She applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for thinking skills and behavioral change. Mindfulness and client-centered techniques show up in exercises to calm and ground the mind.

She has experience across settings helping clients cope with relationship strain, parenting stress, burnout, addiction, and identity questions. Vanessa also works with issues such as attachment and abandonment, communication problems, caregiver stress, body image, and forgiveness. Her work includes practical coaching around life transitions and career concerns.

People who prefer clear, steady guidance and tools they can use between sessions may find her approach helpful. To begin, readers should confirm current session options and follow the site instructions to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling an initial appointment.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Vanessa uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people identify what matters to them and take steps toward those values. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that align with personal priorities, which can help with relationship strain, parenting stress, and life transitions.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map thinking patterns and practice alternative behaviors. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions so people can test and change unhelpful habits. Mindfulness techniques are integrated to reduce reactivity and improve attention in daily life.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Vanessa will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and comfort level. She typically offers clear explanations of why a strategy is suggested and checks in to adjust the plan over time.

The original biography does not list which online session formats are used. Please confirm the current session options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so therapy fits around parenting and work commitments.
