Vanessa Gross-Marino is a Texas-based Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who supports individuals navigating complex emotions and major life transitions. Her work is grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques and a steady focus on helping people reconnect with meaning, healing, and resilience when life feels overwhelming.
With experience supporting concerns such as depression, anxiety, stress, and the impacts of trauma and abuse, Vanessa helps clients explore what has been weighing on them and identify practical ways to move forward. She approaches therapy with compassion and curiosity, walking alongside each person as they work through emotional barriers, strengthen coping skills, and rediscover inner resources they may have lost touch with.
Vanessa aims to offer a supportive, non-judgmental space where clients can speak openly, process lived experiences, and develop strategies that fit their lives. She emphasizes personalized care that honors each individual’s unique story, including spiritual perspectives when they are important to the client. Whether someone is coping with life changes, seeking clarity around life purpose, or working through post-traumatic stress, she brings empathy, expertise, and genuine care to the therapeutic process.
Vanessa Gross-Marino uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients make sense of difficult emotions and build practical coping strategies. In online therapy, this can include structured, skills-focused work that supports stress management and anxiety reduction, helping clients notice patterns, strengthen resilience, and respond differently when emotions feel intense.
She also brings a trauma-informed lens to therapy, which can be helpful for people working through the effects of trauma and abuse or post-traumatic stress. This approach prioritizes pacing, stabilization, and creating space to process experiences in a way that feels manageable. For clients who are navigating life changes or questions of life purpose, therapy can also be meaning-oriented, supporting reflection on values, identity, and what matters most during transitions.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Vanessa collaborates with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked before, then adjusts the work over time to fit their needs.
Online therapy offers flexibility without losing continuity of care. Clients can meet by video calls or phone sessions, or choose live chat and text-based messaging when scheduling or comfort levels make that a better fit.
