About
Anna
Hi, I’m Anna! I have been licensed since 2002. I have a warm, individualized approach to care. What’s most important to me is that you feel comfortable talking to me and that you feel understood. I meet people in the moment and tend to focus more on the present and the future, but I am also available to help process feelings from the past and draw connections you might not have seen on your own. I take a holistic approach and I see you as the expert on your feelings and needs, I’m just the guide, the person who holds the container for you to see and feel with more clarity. I have expertise in trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, dysfunctional families, dysfunctional relationships, ADHD, and addictive personality. I also have personal knowledge from lived experience. I am also a good match for people exploring spirituality or figuring out their next steps and direction in life.
In my spare time, I enjoy personal growth workshops, meditation, spirituality, nature, and traveling the world. I am passionate about personal growth and alternative healing. I have studied nutrition and herbalism; and I also do energy healing.
