I am grateful for my time with Anna and the immense support she has provided me during some extremely trying times. It’s very scary to trust a stranger but this therapist puts in the time necessary to earn your trust.

Anna had been super helpful! Every question I have had for her she has had a suggestion and even a solution for! You just have to put in the work as well. She will get you to drive deeper and ask yourself those uncomfortable questions you don't want to. Anna also doesn't have a biased opinion so she will see both views - yours and an outside perspective. I find this helpful because I'm set accountable to figure out what I can do to better the situation. She is also really funny and cheerful which makes her easy to talk to.
I would definitely recommend Anna to anyone. I'm glad I signed up and was paired with her.
