Self Esteem Therapists in Fredericton, NB
My approach is grounded in compassion, curiosity, and a belief that healing is not about becoming someone new, but remembering who you are beneath the noise. I tune into what lies beneath the story. My training in energy work and spiritual sensibility allow me to notice the subtle shifts in body language, tone, even silence - creating opportunity to respond in ways that foster deep safety and attunement. My practice is neurodivergent-affirming, trauma-informed, and human-first. I know what it’s like to live in a world that often misunderstands sensitivity, intuition, or intensity and how healing it can be to finally feel seen.

My name is Anna, and I am a trauma-certified and registered Clinical Therapist/Clinical Social Worker. I am deeply passionate about supporting individuals, couples, and families in their healing journeys through a holistic and eclectic approach.
I work from a client-centered, anti-oppressive, and trauma-informed lens, meeting each person with deep compassion and curiosity. I believe that you are the expert of your own life and experience; however, as humans, we can sometimes get stuck and may need a little extra support, accountability, and encouragement along the way to recalibrate, heal, and move toward growth and empowerment.

I am particularly interested in working with leaders and professionals navigating burnout, career transitions, or the relentless pressure of high-achieving environments. I am also interested in working with adults working through anxiety, perfectionism, and relationship patterns that may be holding them back. If any of that sounds familiar, I would love to connect.

My counselling style is influenced by a variety of different approaches in order to best help my clients deal with issues such as anger, anxiety, depression, guilt, relationships, people-pleasing tendencies, boundaries, self-esteem, stress and much more.
Sometimes it feels like we are doing everything we can to hold it all together and yet it's not getting any better. You are definitely not alone!

Sometimes life's problems can seem overwhelming– when we do not know how to deal with them we can become 'stuck'. But once problems are shared with another, they become more tangible and that is a good starting place! The beauty of therapy is that the counsellor becomes a sort of 'tour guide' for exploring challenges and, in collaboration, determining a way forward. Getting those recurring thoughts out of your head and into the real world for exploration is the first step to feeling better. So, no matter the size of your challenges, I promise to provide genuine compassion and warmth to support you in this process.

Many of the people I work with are used to holding it all together for everyone else - navigating anxiety, work, parenting, or an array of life transitions - and are looking for a space where they can finally slow down, feel understood, and reconnect with themselves. I have specialized training in Perinatal Mental Health and bring a deep commitment to supporting parents as they navigate the profound transition into parenthood. I also support clients through many other kinds of life transitions (work, university, life, goal-setting, relationships, etc).

Although I enjoy working with clients seeking support for a wide range of concerns, my areas of focus include anxiety, depression, stress management, relationship concerns, shame and guilt, self-esteem, personal growth and wellness, as well as women's mental health concerns.

In my practice, I focus on creating a safe, inclusive, and non-judgmental space where you can feel seen and heard. Together, we can work to develop meaningful and realistic strategies for coping with life’s challenges. My goal is to personalize the counselling experience to your unique situation, supporting you in managing difficulties and enhancing your overall well-being.

I care deeply about giving folks a space to be heard and seen. I believe that the beauty of therapy lies in the growth and transformation that becomes possible when people experience safe, caring presence —both within themselves and with others. I am passionate about working with folks struggling with anxiety, trauma, panic disorder, OCD, and depression. I also find deep meaning in accompanying people grappling with big, existential questions. My ideal client is interested in self-exploration and sees change as a complex and multifacted process that involves many angles and layers.

Whether coming to counselling is a new step for you or if you have previous experience, I am honoured to join you on your path.

I believe, with the right fit, everyone can benefit from counselling, whether for existing challenges or as part of your ongoing self-care routine. Life is hard; we don’t have to navigate it alone!

I have experience with PTSD, attachment issues, depression/anxiety, spirituality, self-worth/ self-esteem issues, shame, neurodivergence, and I am passionate about diversity and integrating a cultural perspective for marginalized groups/bicultural individuals.
Do you remember when you were learning how to ride a bike? Undoubtedly, the process of learning was through trial, error, and perhaps guidance from a caregiver. It’s a common misconception that a therapist’s role is to simply give advice. That is not the case. My role in our therapeutic relationship is to guide you through the process – just like learning to ride a bike for the first time. It takes effort, time, and perhaps some discomfort…But the “aha” moment of finding balance brings a sense of freedom and independence.

I work with clients of various background such as veterans and individuals who have experienced traumatic events, and clients who are curious about somatic psychotherapeutic approaches (mind-body connection).
