First, thank you for stopping by. I am truly honored that you are considering me to be such an integral part of your life's journey! My name is Ana and I am a trauma-informed, EMDR-trained counselor. I work with people experiencing a wide range of concerns including: childhood and/or recent trauma, anxiety, and depression, as well as general life issues such as: codependency, forgiveness, self-esteem, communication, and relationship difficulties. Additionally, I am trained in sex offender treatment and I have clinical experience working with those who are involved in the criminal justice system.

I have always wanted to help people. I’ve been able to do that in a variety of ways over the years. Working in domestic violence shelters, agencies that assist child sexual abuse survivors, in-home intensive substance abuse counseling...I’m privileged to have been able to help so many. It truly makes me happy. Now, I have my own practice after all of these years and I couldn’t be more excited to continue helping people; just in a much more enjoyable and comfortable setting. The therapists that work at Mandala are personally hired by me, and they are all wonderful and caring! You’re in great hands!

As a clinical social worker with over 20 years of experience, I have had the privilege of working with culturally, economically and ethnically diverse individuals, families, couples and groups from all walks of life. I have practiced domestically and internationally including, NYC, California and most recently in Dublin, Ireland. (Please note that I am only taking tele-therapy clients and use a HIPPA approved site. I have found using tele-therapy to be very convenient for clients with challenging schedules).

You deserve to live a life that leaves you excited to wake up every morning. Life itself sometimes can be a roller coaster.

I can help you navigate through this journey in a mindful way and help you heal anything that burdens you and is causing any distress.

Through evidence-based interventions tailored to each individual’s unique needs, I aim to facilitate meaningful change and help clients develop the coping strategies and skills necessary to achieve overall wellness and inevitably the ability to love themselves.

Are you a woman in the Maternal phase of her life? Ready to have a family but struggling to navigate infertility or pregnancy loss. Are you pregnant and experiencing anxiety and depression? Do you have birth trauma you need to work through? Are you struggling with post-partum depression, anxiety or PTSD? Are feeling overwhelmed by all of the transitions associated with becoming a mother? If so, you're in the right place. For nearly 2 years, I have been specializing in Maternal Mental Health counseling a specialty that focuses specifically on the unique mental health needs that encompass the Maternal phase of a woman's life.

Dealing with anxiety, depression, and trauma can feel debilitating. You get stuck in thoughts of worry and fear that feels like a vicious loop you can’t escape. It can cause your world to get very small as it prevents you from participating in normal life. You always feel on edge, and you struggle to trust others. You constantly get triggered by the painful memories in your past. You feel stressed, overwhelmed, and very alone. If this sounds like you, I want to assure you that there is hope. You don’t have to feel stuck and alone in this misery. Reaching out for help is a courageous step towards being the person you want to become.
