Here are some reflections from the people I have had the privilege of walking alongside.
Many of my clients choose to work with me over many years, allowing space for deep and lasting change to unfold. It is such a privilege to be a life witness—to witness the quiet shifts, the moments of courage, the reconnection with self and the unfolding of who they truly are.
These words offer a glimpse into their experiences of this journey.
"Body Centred Therapy with Anna has been the most healing and transformational therapy modality that I’ve ever experienced. Instead of talking about the distress of feeling unheld, I get the experience of being deeply held and attuned to. The depth of Anna’s attunement and presence is profound. She listens to the language of the body.
Through Anna’s support, I have learned to offer this same presence to myself. I have developed the capacity to go into the centre of the centre of my embodied experience. Not what I think I should be feeling, but what I actually feel.
This capacity to be present with myself and my instincts has allowed me to be more honest with myself and others. I’m learning to be less apologetic about my needs, desires and sensitivity.
In a culture that goads us be less sensitive, less instinctive, less feeling and less trusting of our animal bodies, reconnecting with our bodies is a subversive act. Anna’s work is radical." A.M.
“I have spent most of my life completely disconnected from my body, people-pleasing, overextending myself, living with chronic illness, and ignoring who I truly was and what I needed.
I have seen many other therapists over the years, but it wasn’t until I met Anna that everything began to change. She gently guided me back to myself, helping me reconnect my mind and body in a way I never thought possible.
This journey has been incredibly life-changing and deeply vulnerable, and I honestly couldn’t have done it with anyone else. Anna has a rare gift. She brings an extraordinary combination of warmth, wisdom, knowledge, and intuition that makes you feel completely seen, understood, and safe.
If you’re considering working with her, do yourself a favour and trust this incredible human. She has an amazing ability to help make sense of the things we sometimes can’t make sense of ourselves, especially when life has left you feeling disconnected from yourself.” M. T.
“I cannot be any more grateful and thankful for Anna. She has been a significant part of my ‘recovery’ and I could not be doing it without her help.
I am feeling great relief for being able to access and continue my therapy sessions online with her, during the Covid 19 Quarantine. I am finding it comforting that I can get the ongoing assistance I need and want at this time. Anna understands my issues and is helping me work through them. I can see myself improving and being able to transition to online therapy has been invaluable. I feel fully supported on my journey.
Anna is always welcoming, supportive, compassionate, understanding and has my best interests at heart. She has always given 100% of her time and attention. I thank her for her patience with me in my fears and insecurities of change. I value our weekly sessions and calming voice. I look forward to continuing my journey online.” Lynne
"I have been receiving BCT from Anna for nearly three years, since the birth of my first child. Anna's work uncovers, supports and heals imprints held deeply in the body.
I often go into a session thinking that a surface concern will be addressed only to be amazed that Anna has been able to, with skill and gentleness, connect with it's deeper source. I experience feelings of deep relief and gratitude following my sessions with ann and have often exclaimed "you've saved my life".

Working with Anna over the past year has been truly life-changing. She supported me through a difficult period in my life with genuine loving kindness, warmth, authenticity, patience, and compassion.
She has an incredible ability to simply be with you, creating a space where you feel deeply seen and supported. Rather than telling you what to do, she gently guides you towards your own understanding and healing. During one of our sessions, I experienced a profound breakthrough that allowed me to move beyond barriers I had carried for years and connect with myself in a completely new way.
I am deeply grateful for her support and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a truly gifted, compassionate, and authentic therapist. Emily.
I’ve been seeing Anna regularly for about 5 years, and I consistently find her to be a powerful, insightful, patient guide and witness.
She is a strong, spiritual, and intelligent woman. As someone who is cerebral to a fault, I always appreciate her somatic support.
Anna has helped me understand and accept deep grief, shame, and depression with such grace. She’s also helped me with existential angst - exploring and befriending “the void”.
I’m ever inspired and indebted to Anna, and would recommend her to anyone who would appreciate a warm yet firm guide through life. Amy
