Hello and welcome to your healing journey! My name is Anna, and I am a licensed social worker with 6 years of experience working in the field of mental health. In my practice, I value collaboration, curiosity, and compassion in a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship where healing and growth can flourish. I center my clients’ unique lived experiences, highlight their strengths, and feel it is a privilege to walk alongside you in your healing journey.

I wholeheartedly believe that every person holds the capacity within them to forge meaningful pathways towards change and find your calm amid life’s storms. I have worked with individuals of all ages in a variety of settings including hospitals, community-based clinics, and private practice. I have extensive experience working with teenagers and young adults and am well versed in the unique challenges present in these life stages. In addition to my experience as a dedicated mental health therapist, I also have experience with the neuropsychological evaluation process and hold a continued passion for appreciating how our neurochemistry can impact our emotional states and behaviors. In my free time, I enjoy traveling, being active, and spending time outside.

I have provided therapeutic interventions as an outpatient therapist and crisis counselor for 10 years; working with people with acute mental health concerns and people with serious and persistent mental health disorders.

I have worked with people of diverse backgrounds over my career. In helping clients achieve their mental health goals, I acknowledge and support developing a strong therapeutic relationship with my client to best support my clients in developing awareness and skills needed to achieve the therapeutic goals that you set. I believe in a client-centered approach that focuses on interventions that will work best with each, individual client for the best result, based on the beliefs and values of those clients

I understand that people have situations that come up in their lives while working on goals and have, and hope to continue to, help my clients learn skills needed to help manage those problems and increase awareness of how they impact my clients' mental health. I will support you in making changes in your mental health when you are ready to begin.

Welcome—I’m so glad you’re here. Reaching out for yourself or your child takes care, intention, and courage, and I’m honored you’re exploring what support could look like for you or your family. 

You may be someone who always seems to have it together on the outside while feeling overwhelmed on the inside. Maybe you find yourself people-pleasing, second-guessing your decisions, or carrying the weight of past experiences that continue to shape your relationships and sense of self. Perhaps you're tired of anxiety, self-doubt, or patterns that leave you feeling disconnected, emotionally exhausted, or stuck. If you're longing to feel more grounded, confident, and connected—to yourself and the people you care about—you don't have to navigate that journey alone.

Together, we'll explore the experiences that have shaped you with curiosity and compassion. We'll identify your needs, deepen your self-awareness, and strengthen your ability to trust yourself and advocate for what matters to you. As healing unfolds, you'll build a more secure relationship with yourself, cultivate healthier and more fulfilling relationships with others, and move through everyday life with greater peace, resilience, and authenticity.

If your child is experiencing challenges at school and in relationships with impulse control, emotion regulation, school difficulties, attachment struggles, and social skills, then I'm the right fit. Through engaging activities and an attachment focus, I help children express themselves, build secure connections, and develop effective coping strategies to increase their success at school and at home.
