Vanessa Pombo, MS, MHC

Mental Health Counselor

I am a clinician at our Chelsea clinic who provides therapy services!

A client who struggles with finding their esteem and motivation to pursue the things that make them happy, while navigating the challenges of life. Some of the issues may be work life balance, body issues, negative self talk, racing thoughts, interpersonal conflicts, and self care.

I am a recent graduate with a focus on mental health and substance use counseling. In addition to my schooling, I have a background in Mental health Occupational Therapy working with teenagers, adults, and older adults on a wide variety of mental health issues and concerns. My philosophy for treatment is through the lens of cognitive behavioral theory and helping individuals better understand the connection between how their emotions and feelings connect to their behavior and actions. I empower individuals to be their best and get the most from treatment and believe in the resilience and strength of clients. I strive to develop a safe, welcoming, and encouraging space for clients to be themselves throughout their therapeutic journey.

My role as the therapist is to support the client through their journey while establishing a strong and trusting therapeutic relationship. My role is to facilitate client growth and development in ways that foster the interest of the client to promote healthy habits, interpersonal skills, emotional regulation, and success. My primary responsibility as a therapist is to respect the dignity and promote the welfare of the client. Through joint efforts, the therapist and the client will work together in devising counseling plans, goals and identifying the course of treatment. As the therapist, I will collaborate with the client to establish meaningful goals to ensure that the therapeutic process is both beneficial and successful.
