Hi, I’m Dr. Vanessa Marie Armas, and I’m deeply passionate about helping individuals navigate life's challenges to achieve greater emotional well-being and balance. I hold a Doctorate in Psychology and am a licensed Marriage, Family, and Child Therapist in California. I’m also a certified Integrative Nutrition Health Coach and Health Coach, with additional training in Nutritional Psychiatry from Dr. Drew Ramsey.
With over 10 years of experience, I take an integrative approach to therapy, combining evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Nutritional Psychiatry. I believe in a holistic approach to mental health, where mind, body, and spirit work together for healing and growth.
I specialize in helping individuals who are struggling with anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, life transitions, and work-life balance. I also work with those experiencing antagonistic relational stress, helping you navigate conflict in relationships and break free from negative cycles of communication and stress. My goal is to provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your challenges, build resilience, and create lasting positive change.
Whether you’re seeking to improve your mental health or address specific relational stressors, I’m here to support you in finding a path forward, wherever you are in your journey.
