My Story

I’ve been through a lot, just like you—getting lost, taking detours, and crying hard—but I’ve finally found my way to where I am now: as a life coach, living “my life” (not his).

I’d shout my past self from the mountaintop:

1.   Seek help—It’s safe and much faster! Please get help!
2.   Be honest with yourself. I know you had to lie a zillion times to protect yourself. You’re safe now.
3.   Know yourself. You had to accept his answer. Not anymore.
4.   Try something new and find what works for you. You want a different result? Do things differently!
5.   Work with a life coach!

Why life coach?

Life coaching had hammer blow-like impacts on me and left me confident and satisfied.
Clarity of mind; Looking ahead & Forward Momentum
are what I needed and coaching excels at.
Coaching led me from “I was shocked: no boundaries, no idea what I wanted.” to “I want to be a life coach and help people like past me.”

Why did I become a trauma-informed life coach?

(1) Very few coaches are trauma-informed and don’t coach traumatized people like past me. What a shame! Knowing the impact coaching had on me, I mumbled.
(2) Ongoing support for a relocating client: With each relocation to a new state, I had to restart counseling and other services. Coaches offer unrestricted support regardless of location.
(3) Witnessing clients’ progress is deeply rewarding (see below).

“I made tremendous improvement with change of my mind set and towards things over period of our sessions. (a student)“

“Anna is a kind, compassionate, and understanding individual who helped me get in tune with parts of myself that I had not known before. She also helped me when I was struggling to make a big decision in a nonjudgmental yet valuable way. I really appreciate Anna for her gentle approach during my coaching sessions. (L.A.)“
