ABOUT ANNA

Hello! My name is Anna and I'm the owner of Create Connections Counseling. I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Registered Art Therapist who began practicing in 2016.

As a therapist, my values center around empathy, respect, and authenticity. I believe in creating a safe and welcoming space where individuals can share their thoughts and feelings without judgment.

I enjoy working with college students, adults, and older adults who are experiencing issues such as anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, relationship challenges, burnout, and coping with daily stressors.

I provide a person-centered approach in both individual and group therapy, with my training rooted in Art Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy. I am also trained in various Mind/Body techniques, including certification as a Yoga instructor.

I approach therapy with a gentle yet direct style and prioritize building genuine connections with my clients, fostering trust, and encouraging open communication.

I founded Create Connections Counseling because I believe that true healing occurs through meaningful connections—connecting with oneself, connecting through relationships with others, being attuned to one’s environment, and engaging with diverse life experiences.

I welcome you on this journey of connection with me!
