When your child is struggling with big emotions, anxiety, or school challenges - you feel it too. You want to help, but despite your best efforts, nothing seems to work, and it’s wearing on both of you.

Between managing work, parenting, and everything in between, you’re running out of ways to stay calm while holding it all together.

At Free to Be Mindful, we help kids, teens, and moms find the tools to manage emotions, communicate better, and create calmer days… together.

I'm here to show you how you can reduce the overwhelm and  find joy.

Hi, I'm Vanessa!

Licensed Therapist, Mom Coach, Speaker, and Host of the Free to Be Mindful Podcast

Parenting and family life can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re trying to juggle work, relationships, and the constant needs of your children. You want a calmer home, stronger connections, and space to breathe... but it’s not always easy to figure out how to get there.

That’s where I come in. With over 20 years of experience working with thousands of children, families, and professionals, I help moms and kids reduce stress, improve communication, and create more intentional ways of living together.

Through therapy, mom coaching, speaking, and hosting the Free to Be Mindful Podcast, I provide practical tools and mindful strategies that empower families to move from overwhelm to connection - and to live with more calm, joy, and intention every day.
