Vanessa Rubin is a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Louisiana. She holds a Louisiana professional counseling license (LPC 7402) and is also credentialed as a National Certified Counselor.
She has seven years of experience providing therapy, including more than five years working specifically as a substance abuse counselor. Over the course of her work she has supported people facing addictions, depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting difficulties, career challenges, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). She has also worked with many individuals who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.
Her therapy style is warm and interactive. She approaches clients with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and she avoids stigmatizing labels. Vanessa draws from cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and rational-emotive therapy, adapting conversations and treatment plans to each person’s unique needs.
She recognizes that seeking change requires courage and aims to support and empower clients who are ready to take that first step. Vanessa looks forward to working with those seeking a more fulfilling and happier life.
Many people wonder whether working with a therapist online can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
One major benefit is flexibility. Individuals can connect in the way that fits their life best - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This makes it easier to schedule and maintain regular care.
Therapists who provide online care are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to change therapists if they seek a different fit. For many people, online therapy offers a practical and effective way to access support for everyday mental health needs.
