Anna Guha
I’m a licensed marriage and family therapist with 7 years of experience helping adults address a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Grounded in a humanistic-existential approach, I help clients explore issues related to identity, self-esteem, purpose, and personal growth, as well as cope with stress, grief, and major changes. My style is warm, collaborative, and practical, supporting clients in building insight, resilience, and meaningful change.
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In the initial session, I establish rapport, gather background information, and we collaboratively outline the client's goals and expectations for therapy. Together, we explore presenting concerns and begin to lay the foundation for a trusting therapeutic relationship.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My strengths as a therapist lie in my ability to infuse sessions with warmth and humor, creating a welcoming environment where clients feel comfortable and at ease. Additionally, my nonjudgmental openness fosters trust and encourages clients to explore their thoughts and feelings without fear of criticism or rejection.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
My ideal client is someone who is open to self-exploration, motivated to make positive changes, and willing to actively engage in the therapeutic process. They demonstrate a genuine desire to understand themselves better and are committed to their own growth and healing. Additionally, they value collaboration and trust in our therapeutic relationship.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Here’s a sharper, more grounded version of option 2: I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients understand how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors interact, reduce distress, and make meaningful changes in daily life. Sessions are collaborative, practical, and focused on skills clients can use outside of therapy.
Existential
Here are three first-person options with slightly different emphasis: **Option 1 (clean, balanced)** > I also incorporate an existential approach to help clients explore meaning, identity, and choice, particularly during periods of transition or uncertainty. This work supports deeper self-understanding and alignment with personal values. **Option 2 (warmer, reflective)** > I also incorporate an existential approach, inviting clients to explore questions of meaning, identity, and choice, especially during times of change or uncertainty. This perspective helps clients develop a clearer sense of what matters to them. **Option 3 (direct, practical)** I incorporate an existential approach to support clients in examining meaning, responsibility, and choice as they navigate life transitions. This work complements skills-based therapy by deepening insight and intentional action.

I appreciated how open and honest she was with me. I felt heard and feel like she understands my goals for therapy which is difficult to find. I need a therapist that I can discuss my problems with and not just have my words echoed back to me. She actively listened to what I was saying and came up with genuine comments and questions which I very much appreciate :)

Holds her patients accountable to themselves, always roots for you, listens intelligently & asks questions that prompt good conversation! I feel very lucky to have Anna as my therapist and would recommend her highly

Anna is very understanding, meets you where you are at. Anna offers hope to traumatic events. First visit went wonderfully and I plan to meet with Anna again next week.
