Change often brings stimulation and renewed energy. However, when change is sudden and/or painful, life can become unfamiliar and challenging. With someone to guide and ground us during these unsettling times, we can benefit, heal and even grow. I'm available to be that someone for you. I am Ann Laing, 30 years a California licensed therapist, accompanying clients towards a more purposeful and meaningful life-one that is more than just enduring. I've extensive experience with issues surrounding grief, loss, relationship difficulties, stress, anxiety, as well as anger management.

Ann has been so supportive of my journey this year… from being out of body and in my mind to being able to apply strategies to coping. I am grateful for her help in my self work journey.

Ann is the best listener and asks the right questions that has helped me understand myself and issues so much better.

I've had the opportunity to work with a few therapists over the last five years, and Ann is hands-down the best therapist I’ve ever had. She creates a safe, supportive space where I feel truly heard and understood.
Her insights and guidance have helped me grow in ways I didn’t think were possible.
I couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Ann is amazing! 10/10 would recommend. She is highly intuitive, kind, caring, asks all the right questions and just overall is an excellent therapist. I have had quite a few therapists and after meeting her one time virtually I could feel the connection and everything falling into place. Massively thankful to have found such a wise woman to connect with.

Ann is a wonderful therapist. This was my first venture with therapy and I was very nervous but Ann made me feel so comfortable and at ease. I was able to speak with her openly and we were able to discuss deep matters that opened the doors to things I had never connected before.
She has made me feel seen and empowered. I so appreciate how she validated my feelings. It meant everything to me and lifted a huge weight off my chest.
I highly recommend her. She has helped me in more ways than I could have imagined. ❤️

Ann Laing has been an absolute angel in my life. I came to her confused on how to get out of unhealthy situations in my life, and now after 4 months of weekly sessions I’m ready to end my therapy journey for now. She was the catalyst I needed to get my life to a place where I’m in control and loving life. Im stronger than ever, more confident in who I am than ever. She is so kind and insightful. She recommended reading material and taught me how to deal with certain situations. I’m so grateful for the time we spent together and the knowledge I now have to move forward and thrive. The support she offered me was exactly what I needed, she’s a wonderful woman and teacher.
