Anna has done more for me in therapy in a short time than I’ve ever accomplished after years with past therapists. Having someone who listens and also helps you understand why you’re feeling a certain way is crucial. I’m beyond thankful I found Anna!!!

I have had a few experiences with therapy, but Anna has been the first therapist that makes me feel like therapy might work and help me work through some things. Very competent.

So far so good, i do understand that the initially our meetings are geared on getting to know each other, understanding and rooting out what the underlying issues/concerns may be. So it a process, which will make our meetings even better as we continue to meet.
