Vanessa Blanchette, LCSW

Vanessa Blanchette is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Wisconsin with ten years of experience in the mental health field. She has worked across a range of settings, beginning as a crisis counselor, serving as a therapist at the AIDS Resource Center of Wisconsin, and for the past five years holding roles as an outpatient counselor and Clinical Director at an outpatient clinic in Green Bay.

Her approach centers on offering a non-judgmental space where individuals, couples, and families can share their stories. She draws on a mix of theoretical frameworks to match each person’s needs, including existential therapy, mindfulness and Buddhist-inspired psychotherapy, psychoanalytic ideas, cognitive behavioral therapy, and attachment theory. Vanessa also integrates techniques from recent trainings such as CTTP trauma certification, Brainspotting, EMDR, and mindfulness-focused practices.

Humor and genuine empathy are consistent elements in her work, used alongside clinical methods to help clients navigate stress, anxiety, anger, self-esteem concerns, depression, life transitions, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related challenges, sleep difficulties, parenting concerns, and career questions. She regards it as an honor to be entrusted with people’s experiences and is committed to supporting each person's journey with care and respect.
