Compassionate counseling to navigate your highs and lows

Hello! My name is Annalee (she/her)

I am a licensed clinical social worker in Richmond, VA.

I am committed to creating a brave space where you can reconnect with your body’s innate wisdom to navigate life’s challenges.

Therapy Techniques I Specialize In

  • Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing

    EMDR is a therapy that assists individuals in processing challenging memories, emotions, or sensations. The aim is to help process and lessen the emotional impact of distressing memories.

  • Internal Family Systems

    IFS, or "parts work," is about understanding and harmonizing the different aspects or "parts" within oneself. The therapist helps the individual build a compassionate relationship with these internal parts, fostering self-awareness and integration.

  • Somatic Approaches

    Somatic approaches aim to tackle the build-up of stress, shock, and trauma symptoms in our bodies. When we get stuck in patterns of fight, flight, or freeze, using a somatic approach helps release, recover, and boost resilience.

I am a sister, a friend, a struggling potter. I have my own therapist because I believe I cannot take anyone on a journey that I have not taken myself. I may not have all the answers, but I can join as a humble witness to what you are going through.
