Anna is amazing! I’ve only been working with her for a short time, but the results are already there. I’m starting to feel much better about myself, created a routine, realize when I’m procrastinating, etc. I am very confident after working with her for a while I will be in a much better place emotionally and mentally.

With it being my first time in therapy she makes it so easy. She listens and helps direct me to exercises that might help and she’s help me figure out things going on in my daily life. I honestly couldn’t imagine a better therapist
