Hi, I’m Anna, an Associate Clinical Social Worker (ASW) with a lifelong passion for perinatal work. For the past 24 years, I’ve been drawn to empower, nurture, educate, and advocate for those who birth. My path toward becoming a therapist took me through training and work as an elementary school teacher, as well as a birth and postpartum doula. I now bring these years of knowledge and experience into my work as a therapist. I believe that you are the expert on yourself, and my role is to gently reflect your innate strengths, helping you find or reconnect with your authentic voice and learn to empower yourself.

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just not yourself lately? Have you been this way for a while?
You’re not alone—and you don’t have to keep pretending everything’s fine when it isn’t. Maybe you’re weighed down by worry, whether it’s about your relationships, lack of purpose, finances, body image, or sleep. You might find yourself comparing your life to others, wondering why they seem to have it all together while you’re struggling just to get through the day.
If you’re tired of feeling tired, of carrying the weight alone, and feeling like you're stuck—it’s okay to ask for support. It's hard to go at it alone...you don't have to!

I specialize in supporting individuals experiencing infertility, pregnancy loss, and pregnancy and postpartum challenges. My dedication to reproductive mental health comes from my own experiences with years of infertility and a pregnancy loss, and then the happiness of having my son, my rainbow baby. While he’s my greatest joy, I also faced postpartum struggles, so I personally can relate to your experience on some level.

Big life changes can shake your footing. A new job, a loss, a move, a relationship ending, and suddenly anxiety or depression settles in where stability used to be. You may feel unmoored, and that is a deeply human response to change. I believe everyone deserves a safe space to be heard and understood while navigating life's challenges, and creating that space is at the heart of what I do. I earned my MA from Texas State University in 2014, and I work with adults 18 and older. I am continually inspired by the strength people show in hard moments, and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside my clients as they grow.

My goal is to help you uncover your true potential and find more helpful ways of living. I offer a collaborative and client-centered approach tailored to each of my clients individual needs and cultural backgrounds to help attain the personal growth you're striving for. Your life experiences and history contribute to your individual uniqueness. Sometimes it's helpful if your therapist has a base knowledge of aspects of your culture so you don't have to explain everything. Between cultural elements of the LGBTQ community, to intersectionality experiences for persons of color, my background and training aid in this understanding.

You may have a steady career, supportive family, and good health, yet still feel a sense of emptiness or have uncertainty about your life’s direction. Many people struggle with questions that coping skills alone won’t touch: What’s my purpose? Why do I feel disconnected, even when I “have it all”? If you’ve tried therapy before but are still searching for something deeper, you’re not alone. Real change often begins with exploring the things that quietly limit us. Therapy can be more than getting by: it can be about opening space for freedom, meaning, and the life you truly want to live.

My goal is to provide you with that guiding hand within a safe, respectful and nurturing environment, where you are free to express your feelings

I specialize in working with parents, postpartum individuals, adults navigating anxiety, burnout, and relationship stress, and those struggling to balance their own needs with those of others.
