Therapy grounded in relationship.
I’m Anna, a counsellor & psychotherapist working online from the Illawarra, on Dharawal country.
This is a space to slow down, and begin to notice yourself more clearly.
Over time, something starts to shift.
Many of the people I work with come to me after spending time understanding themselves. Where things come from. How patterns have formed.
And then, in more charged moments - often in relation to someone else - that understanding falls by the wayside.
Something takes over.
And you find yourself responding (again) in ways that don’t feel like you.
Afterwards, things can feel clearer again.
But in the moment, it’s harder to stay with yourself.
What happens in our sessions is less about analysing or fixing, and more about noticing what’s happening.
In the presence of someone else, things often become clearer in a different way.
It can feel that simple.
Not through trying to change, but through attention.
Over time, it becomes easier to stay with yourself - even in the moments when something usually takes over.
It was the gentle way you hold space for absolutely anything.
I felt really heard - and beyond that, really equipped.
It’s been life-changing.
