1. EXPERIENCE AND EXPERTISE

Nothing is as amazing as the moment realization dawns on someone that they can have a very different future than the past they came from. Anna loves seeing people’s faces light up when they make life-changing discoveries. Seeing people gain confidence in who they are designed to be, find meaning in their experiences, and discover a purpose bigger than themselves brings her incredible joy. Anna especially loves the moment autistic and ADHD clients discover they are understood, welcome, and safe to be whom they were created to be without shame or fear. Anna knows that parents of autistic and/or ADHD children face unique challenges and obstacles as they seek to support their children’s healthy and happy development. Breaking the cycle of shame and guilt and helping parents discover a brighter future for their children is very important to Anna. Most of all, Anna loves seeing people begin to grasp how wonderfully and fearfully they were created and how deeply and intensely loved they are by their Creator.

Anna is a dedicated counsellor specializing in working with neurodivergent children and adolescents. She offers individual therapy for individuals aged 15 and above, as well as support and guidance for parents and caregivers of children aged 14 and under. With a compassionate and understanding approach, Anna strives to create a safe and supportive environment for her clients and their families to address their unique needs and challenges

Anna specializes in working with trauma, anxiety and depression. Anna understands that autistic and/or ADHD clients may need adaptations and accommodations in counselling to have meaningful and productive experiences in therapy. She is happy to make accommodations for communication challenges and sensory needs. Anna also supports parents of autistic and/or ADHD children.
