MEET VANESSA
I’m Vanessa Pate, M.S., LPC, a bilingual Licensed Professional Counselor, a mother of three, and someone who truly loves the work I do.
I came to the United States from Mexico with my family when I was nine. Growing up between two cultures shaped my appreciation for resilience, family, connection, and the importance of feeling truly seen and understood.
Many of the women I work with feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or disconnected from who they are, often while holding many roles for others. In therapy, I create space for you: your identity, your emotional well-being, your needs, and your healing.

WHERE YOU LOOK AFFECTS HOW YOU FEEL.
DAVID GRAND, CREATOR OF BRAINSPOTTINGBrainspotting identifies, processes and releases brain/body sources of emotional and physical pain, trauma, dissociation and other challenging symptoms. It’s for anyone who feels “stuck” on a concern, or who “just can’t get over it.”
“I have personally experienced Brainspotting as part of my own journey, so I feel very connected to the work.” Vanessa
