About Vanessa

Vanessa Glatt is an LPCC who brings nine years of clinical experience to her practice in California.

Background and approach

She has supported clients across a range of concerns including anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, grief, and substance addiction, and she draws on training in cognitive behavioral therapy as well as mindfulness and trauma-informed techniques. Vanessa aims to demystify mental health care and help people better understand how their minds and bodies interact.

Her style is warm, nonjudgmental, and flexible, adapting strategies to meet each person where they are. Vanessa emphasizes skill-building - such as mindfulness practices and cognitive reframing - to reduce unnecessary suffering while also attending to the meaning behind difficult experiences.

She encourages clients to consider physical self-care alongside psychological work, viewing mind and body as connected parts of recovery and growth. Vanessa frames therapy as a collaborative process that re-engages clients as experts on their own lives.

She offers practical tools and compassionate support to help people reconnect with a more centered sense of themselves and move toward clearer goals and improved functioning.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Vanessa commonly integrates cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based practices in her online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps people identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical coping skills for anxiety, depression, and stress. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and grounding techniques that can reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation in daily life.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy principles to help clients clarify values and take meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. Choosing the right approach is collaborative; Vanessa partners with clients to evaluate how different methods fit their goals, preferences, and life context and will adapt techniques as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for scheduling, reduce travel time, and allow continuity of care across busy routines. These formats make it easier to access consistent support while working on skills and strategies with a licensed professional in a way that fits daily life.
