This is the foundation of how I work with kids and families:

Behavior is communication.

Most of the time, what looks like “defiance” is actually dysregulation.

When a child is overwhelmed, their nervous system is activated — and their ability to think, listen, and respond goes offline.

So instead of asking:
“What’s wrong with them?”

Try asking:
“What do they need right now?”

That shift changes everything.

“Hi, I’m Jeness Vasquez, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida, and I help children, teens, adults, and families feel supported, understood, and empowered.”

Parents—this shift changes everything.

When we see behavior as communication instead of defiance, we respond differently.
And that’s where real change starts.

Your child isn’t trying to be difficult.
They’re trying to tell you something the only way they know how.

Regulation comes before expectation—always.

💛 Save this for later
💛 Share with a parent who needs this

BOOK LAUNCH DAY!📘📚🤍

I could not be more thrilled to announce the publication of Coming Back To Myself, book and workbook, as the first releases in the Finding Freedom series. A blend of my lived experience and professional expertise as a specialist, this book is about all things eating disorders, and is applicable to:

Those struggling with an eating disorder: I hope this book can make you feel seen and less alone, putting words to a similar experience.

Professionals in the field: I hope you find this book to be informative and educational, as a resource to use within your practice as you wish.

Loved ones to those who struggle: Eating disorders simply don’t “make sense.” I hope this book leads to more insight and understanding as to what your loved one may be going through in their mind, the “unseen” experience.

Anyone: Eating disorders carry the highest mortality rate of any mental health condition currently. They also are incredibly common and normalized within society today. I hope this book brings to light new awareness into what disordered behaviors look and feel like.

While the book provides insight from clinical and personal perspectives relating to the experience of an eating disorder, the workbook provides a year of intention, week-by-week, acting as gentle structure and guidance on this journey to recovery.

Society gives such a bad connotation for stretch marks. For some, stretch marks may occur as a normal process of puberty or aging. For others, they may appear post-surgery, other medical event, or pregnancy. And for others, they may appear in the recovery process. Take a deep breath and remember, "marks on my skin have no impact on my value" You're even allowed to be proud of them.
