About me

During the pandemic, I have wondered a lot about my contribution as a professional to this new world that we face and how to transform these moments of crisis into future possibilities. How can we deliberately build the kind of life we want to live in the midst of this situation? How do we face the uncertainty of this new life in a curious, joyful and playful way?
I want to offer a space for people to feel safe, seen and secure. A space where your hopes, dreams, fears, pain, and desires can be expressed without being judged. A place to remove the armor that blocks our full emotional expression and realization; breaking up unhealthy, historically embedded patterns that lead to physical and mental symptoms.
Let’s prioritize your joy, your pleasure and your connection to yourself and others as healing tools.
Let’s work on creating a life full of purpose, creativity and courage! I have experience counseling children, adolescents and adults using a variety of theoretical perspectives in individual, family and group therapy sessions to promote your optimum mental, physical and emotional health.

Good at listening and getting me to think for myself about what is important for me.

Ana is great! She is super friendly and personable. She guides the conversations in ways that makes me feel comfortable about opening up. But also let’s me take the lead with what I’m ready to talk about. She isn’t pushy about “needing” to talk about or work on things that are obvious. Would definitely recommend her to anyone.

I really enjoy the sessions! I can be myself and talk about anything I'd like to share. She is lovely and caring.

I have had 3 sessions with Ana, she is very empathetic, is a good listener and provides very good advice and tools to help me.
