I love words and believe that healing is often found when we have space to tell our stories—to make sense of what we have lived, of who we are, and of where we hope to go. I specialize in walking with people who have experienced trauma and struggle to understand how to hold that trauma as a part of their story. I work well with clients who have experienced structural violence, including but not limited to sexual violence, relational violence, religious trauma, homophobia, fatphobia, racism, medical trauma, & complex trauma. I also work well with high achievers, college students, artists, writers, performers, thinkers, & creatives.

In my work with individual clients, I incorporate my training in the evidenced-based treatment of DBT with Interpersonal, and Person-centered therapies.
My personal and professional experience with mental health began not as a therapist, rather as an advocate for equality in the women’s health community. It is my passion for social justice that has led me to the sacred space in which I can now support others. I trust the power of acceptance and genuineness. I believe that when we are true to self, growth and healing can naturally occur.

Hello, I'm Anne. I've always been complimented on my listening skills, which led me to start my training in counseling at Colgate University, where I served as a resident advisor. During my time there, I also ran cross country and track, connecting with people from all backgrounds. It became crystal clear to me that early experiences and choices can set a person down an unwanted negative path and create patterns that do not lead to the life that one wants. This contributes to depression, anxiety, addiction, and countless maladaptive behaviors.
