Hello there, I’m Andrea! But, please feel free to call me Andy. First off congratulations on seeking the support you deserve. I know it tends to be a difficult step in our journey towards healing. That being said, aren’t you tired of carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders and navigating through life in autopilot? Do you struggle to tolerate the distress that comes from everyday living? Are you constantly finding yourself trying to overcompensate from old wounds, betrayals, and childhood trauma?

Hi my name is Anja and I am a Licensed Mental Health Therapist. I really believe that Therapy should not feel like a place you come to list all your shortcomings, rather it should be a place where you accentuate your strengths and grow your resilience.

Hello, and welcome. I would first like to acknowledge your strength and courage in taking this step toward making your mental health and wellness a priority. I view therapy as a collaborative partnership, in which the therapeutic alliance sets the foundation for successful outcomes. As an integrated therapist, I reject a “one size fits all” approach. I draw from various modalities as necessitated by the presenting issue, and believe that techniques should be tailored to individualized needs. I seek to minimize “labeling,” and strive to make a genuine human connection with clients as they share their unique worldview and experiences.

New Hours 10am-3pm. My ideal client is a person or couple that is willing to talk about finding a better way of life and may need someone to confide in. Also, those needing an unbiased, non-judgmental ear with feedback. In our society, I believe men in particular need a safe place to be heard and take off their armor. So I welcome all men to try therapy and explore themselves beyond what they can provide. Whether you struggle with pride, shame/guilt, saying no, or making decisions I welcome you. Growth is a lifelong process that cannot be rushed. Hypnotherapy bridges your awareness so new possibilities emerge from embedded trauma.
