Anne Peyton Baker
My name is AP, and I consider it the greatest honor to walk alongside clients in their healing journey. After working in residential foster care in the Dominican Republic for over 4 years, I have gained significant experience working with clients through their childhood trauma.

Additionally, I have experience working with clients in all life stages to help them live most fully. I offer services in both Spanish and English.
First session
Clients can expect in their first session to feel heard and given space to express themselves. Together, we will collaborate to determine your goals for therapy.
Strengths
I think that my greatest strengths as a provider are making clients feel comfortable in sharing and creating a nonjudgmental safe space for therapy.
Ideal clients
I love working with clients of all types. I have most experience in helping clients recover from trauma- whether it is complex, childhood trauma or one time, acute trauma.
Treatment methods
EMDR
In conjunction with mindfulness and trauma processing, I use EMDR to help clients reprocess traumatic memories stored in their bodies.
Attachment-based
Attachment affects the ways that we relate to everyone in our lives. By helping clients examine the attachment styles they learned from their primary caregivers, I help them examine and improve their efficacy in their current relationships.
Christian Counseling
I am happy to include aspects of the Christian faith in counseling sessions if the client requests.
Trauma-Focused CBT
Thoughts, feelings and actions are all affected by trauma in every form. Through CBT practices, I help clients process and change how their trauma is affecting their thoughts, feelings and actions.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
I have experience using DBT modalities and often incorporate the DBT life skills in sessions with clients.
