My treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I’ve been using CBT in my practice. It’s helped dozens of clients challenge reoccurring thoughts and manage their anxiety. We’ll use CBT to recognize how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence each other. We’ll then use that knowledge to change your thinking patterns, which will help you lead a less anxious and stressed life.
Psychodynamic
I also provide a safe place for to discuss symptoms, supportive counseling, identification and exploration of emotions, emotion Regulation skills and discussion of vulnerabilities.

Everything I once believed about trauma in life and therapy has changed. Now I see the light switch. Rewriting my story and understanding my trauma feels like a battle, and Annie is like the battle buddy I didn’t realize I needed. I am truly blessed and grateful to work together.

I've had a few sessions with Annie so far. I like her personality and her presence makes me feel better to open up about the things I keep bottled up. I look forward to our weekly sessions.
