Counselor Anna

From a young age, Anna felt drawn to counseling. Throughout her own life, she experienced the encouragement and care of counselors who helped her navigate difficult seasons, and their influence led her to pursue this work herself.

Anna is especially drawn to those carrying the weight of what they’ve experienced or witnessed. Her own experiences with hardship allow her to bring genuine empathy and connection into the room. She also carries a deep belief in hope—and at times, offers that hope to clients as they begin finding their way forward.

Anna cares deeply about the people she works with and strives to serve with compassion and integrity. She believes counseling is not only about insight, but about the courage it takes to show up, engage the process, and trust that change is possible.

As a Christian, Anna’s worldview is shaped by her faith. She believes God is at work in the process of healing and considers it a privilege to walk alongside her clients as they pursue growth and restoration.

Anna holds a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy and Counseling and has completed advanced training in EMDR, perinatal mental health, and couples work.

Anna joined Collective Hope after sensing it was the right next step in her work, following several years in a group practice setting. She was drawn to the opportunity to continue serving clients while also being part of a community of counselors who value connection, support, and shared care.

She values the balance Collective Hope offers—being able to practice independently while also remaining connected to a group of trusted professionals. She considers it a meaningful part of her work and is grateful to be part of a space that supports both counselors and the people they serve.
