About Vanessa
Licensed Professional Counselor-Mental Health (LPC-MH) with eight years of experience in Delaware, Vanessa Broughton focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and life changes. She works with individuals facing workplace strain, caregiver stress, addiction concerns, and mood conditions such as bipolar disorder. Sessions emphasize practical skills and clear goals rather than abstract labels.
Vanessa uses approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy to help people notice what matters and take small steps toward it. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy for communication and emotion regulation when helpful. Therapy typically mixes skill practice, values clarification, and discussion of real-life challenges.
In sessions she talks through communication problems, family of origin issues, and control or perfectionism struggles. She helps people manage seasonal affective disorder, postpartum mood changes, and compassion fatigue. Career concerns, life purpose, and young adult transitions are common topics.
Vanessa frames work as collaborative coaching as well as therapy when that fits. That can include concrete plans for workplace stress, relapse prevention for addictions, or steps to improve self-love and self-esteem. She uses short exercises and homework to build skills between meetings.
People meet her to get tools for coping, clearer priorities, and steadier routines during change. To begin, viewers are asked to follow the site’s matching and scheduling flow so they can set a first session and confirm current session options.

How these approaches are used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, concrete steps in that direction. It uses short exercises to notice thoughts and commit to actions that align with personal values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, such as managing anxiety or depression through activity scheduling and thought records. Client-Centered Therapy centers on the person’s perspective and emphasizes listening and reflective feedback to help people make sense of their feelings and choices. Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the person to test methods and decide which fit best based on goals and preferences. Sessions can shift over time from skills training to processing emotions or relationship work as needs change. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, support steady check-ins during life transitions, and allow for shorter or more focused sessions when needed. Therapists and clients often use exercises and between-session tasks to apply new skills in everyday settings.Sheet 3
