Excellent therapist. 5 stars. She has a very professional, personal and helpful approach. I appreciate her experience and background in neuroscience, and her focus on mindfulness. After 3 sessions, I already have so many simple but effective tools that I use daily. Everyone could benifets from her sessions. Will be returning. Highly recommend! Thank you so much Anna!

Anna has helped me very much to become aware, explore, and readjust my unconscious reactions to different triggers that were not serving me well. As opposed to "controlling" my emotions, I now focus on understanding what causes me to feel certain emotions, and then I work to address the root causes for why they appear, which helps realign my perspective with reality rather than with old, inaccurate perceptions. I definitely recommend her.
