Dr. Vanessa Armas

Hi, I’m a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in California, and I’ve spent over a decade walking alongside people as they navigate life’s challenges. I also hold a doctorate in Psychology, and my work is grounded in both deep clinical training and genuine care for the human experience. I help people work through stress, depression, anxiety, relationship struggles, life transitions, career challenges, and issues around motivation, confidence, and self-worth. But more than anything, I’m here to hold space for you—with compassion, curiosity, and no judgment. I believe therapy should feel like a collaboration, not a one-size-fits-all process. I’ll meet you exactly where you are, and together we’ll shape a path that feels meaningful and supportive for your unique journey. If you’re here and considering therapy, I just want to say: that takes courage. I see you, and I’m so glad you’re taking this step.
