Anna Hawkins,

I view therapy as an opportunity to cultivate a fresh relationship with yourself, inviting disowned parts back into a greater wholeness within you. When these fragmented parts become understood, when they become tended to with compassion, then you have access to more and more of yourself in a coherent experience. I aspire to create an environment that feels safe, connected, attuned, direct, and warm. I've been working with clients since 2010. My educational background includes a MA in Integral Counseling Psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies and a BA in International Studies and Art History from the University of Richmond. My therapeutic training has focused on present-moment, mindfulness-based orientations and relational psychodynamic work. I am dedicated to using my skills, knowledge, relational presence, intuition, and humor to help my clients.
