About
Mindpath College Health serves college and university students, faculty, and staff.
Vanessa (she/her) is honored to accompany patients on their journey toward inner healing. She was drawn to a career in mental health out of a belief that no one should have to navigate life’s heaviest challenges alone. She loves working with college students during a pivotal chapter of expanding their values, interests, and independence. She finds it deeply rewarding to help students navigate personal and career milestones, build self-advocacy, strengthen relationships, and develop lasting coping tools that serve them far beyond graduation.
Her therapeutic approach integrates Humanistic, Psychodynamic, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and she is trained in the Gottman Method to offer specialized relationship support. As a bilingual therapist (English/Spanish), Vanessa is passionate about providing culturally sensitive care. Grounded in her own cultural experiences growing up, she views seeking support as a true strength and strives to cultivate a compassionate environment where patients feel brave to share their stories. She views therapy as a collaborative process designed to foster emotional awareness, growth, self-grace, and meaningful change.
Outside of work, Vanessa loves spending time with loved ones, going to concerts, leaning into creative outlets, watching nostalgic sitcoms, and practicing the art of being silly to keep life balanced.
