Hello, I'm Anna

I am a dedicated Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) in BC, and I specialize in helping individuals regulate their nervous system and resolve the underlying emotional patterns that keep them stuck.

​

I integrate depth-oriented psychotherapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, CBT, ERP, somatic therapies, and experiential approaches. A central focus of my work is memory reconsolidation—a neuroscience-based process that helps transform emotional learnings stored in the brain that drive anxiety, fear, and self-limiting patterns.

​

I have a special interest in working with anxiety, OCD, nervous system dysregulation, and traumatic or distressing experiences, while also supporting clients with a wide range of emotional and psychological concerns. I provide virtual services, as well as 'walk & talk therapy' at a local park.

​

Together, we'll work to help you move from chronic states of fight, flight, freeze, or overwhelm into greater calm, confidence, self-compassion, and resilience. Healing is possible, and I would be honoured to support you on that journey!

Areas of Expertise

Anxiety
Therapy
I use evidence-based treatment approaches (such as depth-oriented psychotherapy, IFS,  EMDR, and ERP) to help you heal from anxiety, panic attacks, phobias, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and chronic worry.  
​

Nervous System Regulation
I integrate somatic-based and experiential techniques to help you regulate your nervous system from a state of chronic 'fight-flight-freeze' to one of calmness, curiosity, confidence, courage, and compassion.
 

Trauma-Informed Therapy
I am trained in trauma-informed treatments such as inner parts-work (IFS), OEI, and EMDR to help you process traumatic memories and re-wire your negative cognitions.
