As Seen On
A Powerhouse of a Presenter!
Janessa was a powerhouse of a presenter to my membership. She not only brought her good humor and high energy, but also delivered extremely impactful insights and motivation that my members loved. I will definitely be inviting her back."
Thanks again for speaking to My Doula VIllage!
I’m a first generation Latina therapist, speaker, business strategist, coach for entrepreneurs & soon to be author. I was born and raised in Miami, and attained my degree from the clinically intensive program at NYU. I have over twenty years of experience working with individuals and families.
After over 12 years in practice I’m in the process of finalizing a book, and I’ve created a program that helps clinicians open, market and scale their own successful private practices.
I host networking events throughout the U.S. and my podcast “Latinas Empowering Latinas” helps reach and support others throughout the world.

Feedback from event attendees
Dream Enabler
Janessa’s knowledge and guidance provided me with the foundation to get my practice up and going. Her expertise and support enabled me to turn my dreams into a reality.
She Made Me Feel Confident!
Janessa was so motivational and offered so much encouragement…She made me feel confident in so many ways as a new clinician. I honestly am not sure if my practice would be where it is today if it was not for Janessa’s overall help and knowledge, the way she motivated me, and how confident she not only made me feel but showed me how to find that confidence within myself.
She is amazing at what she does and I enthusiastically would recommend her to anyone who is in need of her help and skills.
Goes the Extra Mile
Janessa is inspiration personified. I have never met someone so willing to go the extra mile to get you on the path you’re meant to be on. I met Janessa after she hired me to do some design work for her business. Little did I know that she would be the catalyst to growing my own business. She gave me the courage to take the leap and hire my first employees, fix the flaws in my business structure, and figure out what I wanted and how I was going to get it.
Janessa doesn’t beat around the bush. If she sees something that needs fixing, she gets you started on fixing it IMMEDIATELY. I am forever grateful for the energy she uncovered in me. I’m going, going, going and she’s alongside me for the ride. I love you Janessa!

Working with Janessa has been a dream!
Working with Janessa has been a dream! I’m new to private practice and jumped into this venture with two feet not knowing exactly what I was doing. I realized quickly that I it was okay to ask for help. That’s where Janessa comes in. She’s like talking to a friend helping guide you with aspects of business that none of us were taught in school. She has so much knowledge and finesse with being able to nudge you in ways that you didn’t know you needed. Her expertise and knowledge continue to help highlight the best parts of me so that they can shine bright in the way that I conduct my online presence and for others to see. I would recommend her a million times over for the confidence she is helping me create in myself and my brand.
