My name is Anna. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based out of Sunny Florida. Social Workers focus on changing facets of your environment to elect behavioral change. I specialize in working with caregivers facing life transition issues and caregiver stress. My experience is well-rounded in Play Therapy for children/caregivers, palliative & hospice and their caregivers, and adults facing crises.
