I’m very happy with her

Written on Jun 25, 2024 after therapy with Anna for 11 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, eating disorders, self esteem, anger management, bipolar disorder, and adhd

From the very first session, I knew Anna would help me. I felt very comfortable with her, even when talking about difficult topics. She asks the right questions and helps me to understand my thoughts and feelings when I don’t understand them myself. She has been a great neutral perspective who doesn’t just listen to me talk. She tells me when she thinks I’m right and isn’t afraid to tell me when I over-react to things based on my past trauma. This has helped me put things in perspective and work on triggers to become a better person with a healthier mindset. If you have any sort of anxiety or have gone through a traumatic situation and are looking for someone to really help you, Anna is the best.

Anna listens well to my concerns and gives feed-back that I may dislike but is in my best interest but is a positive. Honest and helpful.

Anna is very sweet, Karen, a great listener, and really helps me feel comfortable in talking about the issues that really bother me and takes a lot of consideration and helping me find the solutions I need to better myself.

Anna not only listens but hears you. As my first therapist ever she has shown me nothing but patience kindness and support. I can’t lie to her. I can’t thank her enough as well. Through years of thinking no one understands. She does.
