Hello, I’m Vanessa, a licensed social worker located in Downers Grove, IL, who is passionate about working with those dealing with anxiety/depression, relationship stress, ADHD, life transitions, and more. I have experience working with adolescents (10-12), teens, and adults. My goal is to provide tools to optimize what you already have and to support you on your journey of contemplating, navigating, and celebrating the ups and downs we experience as humans. I approach therapy with genuineness, compassion, humor, acceptance and believe that clients are the experts of their experience. I appreciate you taking the time to read my bio and I look forward to meeting with you soon!
