She empowers her clients—whether individuals, parents, or professionals—with psychoeducation, enabling them to better understand their minds, and utilizes advanced therapeutic techniques to foster emotional growth, connection, and peace.

Whether you’re an executive dealing with high-pressure environments, a couple seeking to restore intimacy, or a neurodivergent individual looking for tailored support, Dr. Ann’s evidence-based, client-centered approach is designed to help you find healing, freedom, and peace.
