Anna is a compassionate, trauma-informed therapist who works with individuals and couples navigating relationship challenges, anxiety, grief, work stress, caregiving, chronic pain, and trauma. She also has a focus on the connection between women’s hormonal health and mental health.

Anna integrates Internal Family Systems (IFS), psychodynamic, somatic, relational, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) approaches into her work. Her background includes caregiving, case management, and crisis advocacy work with survivors of intimate partner, gender-based, and sexual trauma, which guides her sensitive approach to care.
