Hi, I’m Vanessa. WRITER, THERAPIST-IN-TRAINING, SPEAKER.
HEARTWORK is my weekly Substack about relationships, faith, and the sacred work of becoming whole. It’s a space for women who women who want more honest relationships—with God, with others, and with themselves.
This is where we slow down and tell the truth about love, fear, healing, marriage, motherhood, and the inner work that shapes how we show up.
hi, I’m VANESSA
I’m so glad you’re here! As a writer, follower of Jesus, and therapist-in-training, I write for thoughtful readers who want to live with honesty before God, tend to their inner lives, and resist the pressure to perform faith rather than practice it.
My work explores what happens when theology and psychology are held together—when spiritual formation is grounded in emotional truth, and healing is understood as both a human and holy process.
