About Vanessa
Vanessa Becerra Bautista is a licensed clinical professional counselor with six years of experience. She uses practical, evidence-based methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and the fallout from trauma and abuse. Vanessa aims to create a straightforward, compassionate space where parents and family members can talk through tough moments and begin to make small changes.
She focuses on relationship and family concerns, including communication problems, divorce and separation, and caregiver stress.
Background and approach
Vanessa also addresses issues linked to attachment, abandonment, and narcissistic dynamics that can live inside family systems. She keeps language simple and actionable so busy parents can put ideas into practice between sessions. Vanessa favors Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a hands-on approach that looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect.
She works with clients to spot unhelpful patterns and try new ways of responding. Sessions often include concrete strategies you can use right away. Her practice supports people navigating guilt and shame, body image concerns, impulsivity, isolation, and financial stress.
Vanessa emphasizes each person’s strengths and helps them build on what already works. She encourages small, steady steps toward clearer communication and healthier routines. Located in Nevada and licensed as an LCPC, Vanessa helps people move from feeling stuck to feeling more in control.
She recognizes that starting therapy takes courage and aims to make the process straightforward and respectful.
Practical CBT tools and online therapy options
Vanessa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. CBT is hands-on and focused on clear, step-by-step strategies that help with anxiety, mood concerns, and stress related to family and relationships.She emphasizes trying small changes between sessions so progress feels real and manageable. The therapist works collaboratively to decide which techniques fit your needs and goals, adjusting the plan as you learn what helps. Finding the right approach is part of the work together, not a one-time decision.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy family schedules. These formats make it easier to keep therapy consistent when juggling caregiving, work, and appointments. The variety of options supports flexibility in how and when you engage with therapy, while keeping focus on practical steps and real-life problems.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
