About Vanessa
Vanessa Becerra Bautista is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Nevada with six years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and mood concerns including depression. Vanessa works with people who feel stuck after changes in work, relationships, or health and who want clearer direction about what matters next.
She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Sessions are practical and goal-oriented, with attention to what is happening now in daily life. Vanessa aims to build on each person’s strengths rather than starting from deficits.
Clients often bring concerns about attachment, abandonment, guilt and shame, or difficulty communicating with others. She also helps with body image, caregiver stress, money and financial worries, and the emotional fallout of separation or divorce. Conversations can include managing impulsivity, isolation, and dealing with narcissistic behavior in relationships.
The work usually involves setting small, doable steps and checking what changes in mood or behavior follow. Exercises and homework may be used between sessions to practice new skills. Vanessa encourages people to notice small gains and adjust the plan as needed.
If you want to explore purpose after a life change, she can help you clarify values, test options, and make practical decisions. To begin, follow the site prompt to complete the short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How CBT and online sessions fit practical life changes
Vanessa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep them stuck. CBT breaks problems into manageable pieces and focuses on experimenting with small changes to see what works for stress, anxiety, mood problems, and relationship patterns.Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide whether CBT is the best match, adjusting methods based on the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. This means discussing what feels most useful and making changes as sessions progress.
The site describes how to begin but does not list specific session formats here, so confirm the current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They can also allow people to work on real-life challenges between sessions and bring that material directly into conversation. Licensed professionals commonly adapt homework and in-session exercises for remote work so progress continues between meetings.
