My approach cultivates connection & collaboration, offering a judgment-free container tailored to your unique goals and experiences. My clients have reflected that time with me feels deeply humanizing. Our work is aimed at self-trust and empowerment. Change is a direct result of accepting where we're at. Together, we expand your ability to sit with tough emotions and tolerate discomfort, reducing the impact of anxiety & self-doubt. Invite Future You to align with your values, liberated from thought patterns & behaviors that hold you back. We'll make space for growth and dream a path that brings you to best version of yourself.
My name is Anna Elise Loprieno, and I am a Master’s level Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT 141806) with specialized training in EMDR, Mindful Self Compassion (MSC) and evidence-based behavior modification using Comprehensive Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). I also use IFS to resolve internal conversations and conflict that keep us stuck.
Keeping a compassionate lens on ourselves can be hard to do while also watching out for life's inevitable curveballs. It helps to have someone who will gently present an objective lens of some possible steps forward. I would be honored to help you find a more sustainable balance in your own daily experience.

My favorite intervention is something I call "exposure to compliments." I support highly sensitive clients with empirically based skills designed for gently shifting from intention to action. My treatment plans are intentionally woven to promote an ongoing practice of presence & lasting self-leadership. I offer worksheets with skills & reflection questions for individual work between sessions.

Anne Elise is a very skilled therapist! Her DBT approach empowers her clients to develop new skills and change behaviors that are no longer serving them. Kind and deeply empathetic, she holds a very safe space for her clients to explore their inner world.

My favorite conversations often involve exploring the relationships between our Past, Present, and Future Selves. While we only ever have control over the Present, our Past Self has learned a lot that makes each human being see the world through a unique lens. The theories of IFS & DBT help to balance these internal conversations with tools to build a skillful life for our Favorite Future Self.
