What Vanessa Works With

Therapy Specialties

Vanessa Gross, LMFT, works with adults of every age, from young adults to people over 65, and with couples. Her work covers anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma and PTSD, grief and loss, stress and burnout, relationship issues and life transitions, including a career change or the questions midlife brings.

Online Therapy for Clients Anywhere in Texas

All of this work happens by secure video, so you can book from anywhere in Texas without a commute. The one requirement is that you are physically in Texas during each 60-minute session, since that is where Vanessa is licensed.

How to Choose a Starting Point

Start with the page closest to what is weighing on you most right now. Concerns often overlap: burnout can feel a lot like anxiety, grief can bring on low mood, and ADHD can put strain on a relationship. You do not need the right label before you book, because sorting that out is part of the first few sessions.

Because therapy here is by appointment, if you are in crisis or thinking about suicide, call or text 988, or call 911 if you are in immediate danger.
