From Our 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 17 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.
