Hi there, I'm Vanessa!

I’m a bilingual sex-positive therapist, here to support dismantling negative sex tropes upheld by society. I am trauma-informed, centered on experiences of kink, queer, LGBTQIA, and BIPOC communities. I specialize in BPD, Sex therapy, and body acceptance. Let’s eradicate long-standing negative attitudes towards sex, body, and mind!

My focus

The clients who would benefit most from my expertise are those who struggle with self-expression, self-acceptance, and/or voicing their needs and boundaries. I would also be a good resource for people interested in kink/bdsm who are on a weight loss journey or who struggle with BPD.

My approach

I would describe my approach as a smorgasbord of modalities. No single approach will fit all of your needs. At times, we may find that Cognitive Behavioral Therapy works well enough, and at times, we may need to tap into Somatic Therapy or Solution-Focused Brief Therapy.
