"There is nothing wrong with you. Something happened to you. That's different" - Dr. Holly Richmond, PhD

 

Ana specializes in helping adults heal from moments that left them hurt, and helps them improve their quality of life. She enjoys working with the college aged population up to those in their 50’s where she often explores the impact of childhood experiences on present day functioning, how to promote supportive relationships through communication skills and boundary implementation, and works on strengthening your sense of self to feel confident and empowered. Navigating life transitions, promoting sexual well-being, and exploring spirituality or adversity to it are topics that she also enjoys assisting with. 

 

She believes that the biggest success in treatment is your ability to be seen, safe, and heard, both in the therapy room, and outside of it. She takes a collaborative and personalized approach to treatment with a healthy dose of humor and warmth. Together, you’ll discover what works specifically for you.
