It’s support that meets you at the intersection of nervous system healing, matrescence, and soul-deep liberation.

If something here stirred something in you… trust that. Reach out. I’ll meet you there.

Hello there!

let's get acquainted...

Hey, I’m Vanessa—licensed therapist, Matrescence coach, and founder of Matrescence in Color.
I help ambitious, overwhelmed moms of color in the first five years of motherhood feel grounded, whole, and like themselves again (but evolved, not pre-kid).

Because this season isn’t just about surviving—it’s about reclaiming your peace, your power, and your you-ness.

Why doesn’t your self-care actually work?

Ready to understand why your self-care doesn’t stick — and what your nervous system has been trying to tell you all along? (Of course you are. You’re the kind of mom who’s tried everything and still feels like something’s missing.)

Drop your email below and I’ll send you my free guide, 'Regulate Like a Mother': A powerful reframe on burnout, Matrescence, and the body-first work that makes healing finally land.
