Meet Anne
I am a compassionate, client-centered counsellor specializing in trauma recovery, mental health, and life transitions. Using an eclectic approach that includes EMDR and practical strategies, I create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients feel seen, validated, and empowered. I help people process challenges, build resilience, and reclaim agency, guiding them toward hope, healing, and meaningful change.
Book a session with Anne
When you step into my counselling room, you will be met with a warm and inviting presence that radiates kindness and respect. My goal is to create a comfortable and non-judgmental environment where you feel free to open up and share your story with me.
What sparks me: Helping people feel seen, empowered and supported through all of life's transitions.
My career so far
I have worked across a variety of settings, including teaching, recreational therapy with older adults, supporting children in abuse cases, and facilitating groups for women experiencing anxiety and depression. I later spent several years as a school counsellor before moving into the Employee Assistance Program sector, where I also managed a team of counsellors.
These experiences have strengthened my skills and deepened my commitment to counselling, which has always been my true calling. Today, through Book My Therapy, I bring together my professional and personal experience to support clients in building resilience, finding clarity, and working toward healing.
