About Vanessa
Vanessa Stapleton is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia. She works with people managing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, and relationship or intimacy issues. She also helps those coping with grief, career changes, low self-esteem, and compassion fatigue.
Vanessa keeps sessions practical and goal-focused. She listens for strengths and helps clients build tools they can use day to day. Conversations are geared toward small, reachable steps that reduce overwhelm and increase a sense of control.
Background and approach
Her approach draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, cognitive behavioral ideas, acceptance-based strategies, and client-centered care. These methods are used to identify unhelpful patterns, increase emotional awareness, and teach coping skills. Vanessa adapts each session to what a person needs right now rather than following a fixed script.
Over 12 years of practice in Georgia inform her work with issues like substance concerns, codependency, social anxiety, and mood disorders. She emphasizes building autonomy and self-esteem while also addressing practical life demands. Sessions aim to leave people with clear, usable strategies.
Vanessa offers multiple online formats to fit different routines and preferences. She collaborates with each person to set goals and track progress, focusing on steady, realistic change rather than quick fixes.

Online support
Approaches that guide online care
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of relating that developed in close relationships. It helps people notice how past bonds shape current reactions and close-in on new ways to connect and feel safer emotionally. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches practical skills for noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match personal values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person in the room by using empathic listening and unconditional regard to help people clarify goals and grow self-trust.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will talk with the client about needs, goals, and preferences and will try strategies collaboratively. That lets the work shift over time if something does not fit or new priorities emerge.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth or being on camera is an issue. Chat and text messaging provide short check-ins, homework support, or a way to process between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule regular work and to use therapy tools in everyday life.
