Vanessa being altruistic by nature foreseeably switched paths from a career in fashion and finance to a journey which enabled her to concentrate on social concerns.  Consistently benevolent, she honed her interpersonal skills as an Operations Manager and later as a Client Services Director.

Taking her civic responsibility seriously, Vanessa wholeheartedly focused her attention to assisting those in need.  She actualized her deep commitment to the community by attending numerous training programs and participating with community outreach organizations located in Bergen and Essex Counties.

A proud member of the Municipal Alliance, OEM and CERT.  Vanessa embodies her public spiritedness as she is a Youth Mental Health First Responder and is CPRS, FEMA ICS-100 and IS-700 certified.

Today through BlueCrest, Vanessa’s dream to assist others has become a reality. 

Her free time is spent with her family and attending her daughters’ sporting events.

Group schedules for all treatment days are outlined by a clinical curriculum that integrates a multitude of the treatment modalities we offer. Our therapists will conduct weekly individual sessions with each client. These one-on-one sessions most often occurs during treatment hours in lieu of a group session. BlueCrest’s clinical schedule offers comprehensive and diverse therapeutic approaches including, among many others, process (discussion) group, 12-step education/didactic groups, yoga and meditation sessions and life skills training.

Transitioning from treatment to independent living is a common relapse trigger. BlueCrest’s multiple levels of care are intended to gradually “step-down” clinical structure as clients build independence and grow their 12-step program. Clinicians and our Case Manager will assist in making any necessary aftercare referrals for continued care including but not limited to psychiatrists, doctors and therapists.
