Anna’s door is open to clients of all sexual orientations, gender identities, and relationship expansive communities. Anna’s passion is to help others during their healing and growing journey. Anna understands therapy as a collaborative process that allows trust and authenticity to foster insight and growth, exploring how the past impacts the present. She believes that each person is unique, and thus requires individualized care to support them. Anna aims to remind clients of their own resourcefulness as they work to create and enhance a life worth living. In her approach Anna provides safe and non-judgemental space where clients can feel comfortable to open up, explore and process everything that stops them from living the life they want.
