From the Owner
Welcome!
I’m Vanessa Palomera, I’m a neurodivergent mother of two who has suffered from trauma in childhood and growing up feeling misunderstood. I know firsthand what it’s like to be in your shoes. It’s why I am so passionate about the work we do at Serene Butterfly Counseling. I have over 16 years of experience and thousands of hours of specialized therapist training (I love guiding people overcome their barriers to joy and serenity).
Many of our therapy clients have struggled, for years, to find something that improves their mood and relationships… That is, until they receive our services.
Together, we can clear out what’s been holding you back and connect you to your inner light.

Client Testimonials
“I’m that guy who thought I never needed therapy. My family pushed me to see a therapist because I was so self-absorbed and clueless about how I was affecting people. Vanessa has helped me beyond what I could have imagined. It started out as talking and moved into unlocking things rooted deep in my subconscious and making fundamental changes on that level. If you carried around a fifty pound backpack your whole life and didn’t realize it, you wouldn’t know the relief of taking it off until you actually took it off. That’s what working with Vanessa has been like.”
Male Age 50
“Working with Vanessa was honestly some of the best work I’ve ever done in therapy; however it never felt like work. Her modalities, knowledge, and gentle nature allows for so much transformation to happen in the room. Her ability to quickly hone in on what I was trying to express and then guide me to transform through Rapid Resolution Therapy and EMDR was incredible. I started to see changes in my life, my behavior, my relationships after the very first session. Truly grateful for her.”
Female Age 28
Vanessa is wonderful! She taught me how to cope with anxiety and depression. I continue to practice accessing the different feelings of love, particularly self-love, that I learned in her group therapy class. I would recommend Vanessa to anyone that needs guidance and is ready to do the work that she’s equipped to support you through!
