I believe that therapy is a co-created process meant to bring awareness within ourselves and our relationships to create meaningful change. I believe that everyone has the natural capacity to have a fulfilling and desired quality of life. Healing comes into play to meet life’s obstacles so that growth and integration can happen. I look at relative trauma as well as the impact of larger systems. I use mind-body awareness practices to help bring alignment within authentic self. I work to bring non-judgment and trust as transformation occurs. I look to help you explore within yourself, in relationships, families, and society.

Hi! I'm Anne Forrest, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Self-Esteem Coach. I believe that feeling good about ourselves is our birthright, and I help clients to love themselves through individual counseling and self-esteem workshops. I use Gestalt therapy and other approaches which are experiential, feelings-focused, and include the body. I love to work with people who struggle with trauma issues, addictions, and LGBTQIA issues, as well as low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, grief, and codependency. I like people who are unconventional, whether that is in their spirituality, gender identity, or any other area.

I believe therapy is the process of getting to know and like yourself better. By looking inward, we discover how we support or undermine ourselves with thoughts, feelings, habitual body patterns and behaviors born out of pain and trauma. We start to distinguish our authentic self from who we think we need to be. When we have more information about ourself and more freedom to be authentic, we can then begin to make changes to better support ourself and create a life that is fulfilling.

As a therapist, it is my goal to create a safe and welcoming environment for individuals to explore any concerns they may be experiencing. My approach is tailored to each individual client, and I believe that a strong therapeutic alliance can provide a safe and healing space. It is important for me to explore my client's personal history and background to help them understand how it is currently affecting their present situation and how we can collaborate to improve it.

As a Licensed Therapist I believe there is great value in a curious and non-judgmental exploration of our feelings, thoughts, actions, and relational patterns in the presence of another person. I value the collaborative therapeutic relationship, using authenticity and humor within the therapy process. Together we will explore habits, beliefs, physical manifestations, limitations and the underlying issues that keep you stuck in patterns that restrict your capacity to enjoy the quality of life you desire. I welcome all genders, sexual orientations, races, nationalities, and have a strong commitment to trauma-informed care.

I also work with individuals going through a transition in life, relationships, career, or health status. During a difficult season in life we are more open to learning new skills and perspectives.

Taking the first steps to feel better can be scary. Therapy is a big ask! Trusting a new person, daring to make change, investing time and energy in yourself for maybe the first time ever - it can be overwhelming. I take a Health At Every Size (HAES), trauma-informed, LGBTQIA+ allied approach to navigating what quality of life means to you. We can explore your authentic self together and work toward goals you find motivating.

With a specialization in women’s issues, I approach therapy with a gentle, holistic, and down-to-earth perspective. I deeply enjoy working with women on a journey of self-discovery, seeking to understand themselves more fully and bring greater harmony to their lives. The journey into motherhood—from pre-motherhood through pregnancy, birth, and beyond—is especially meaningful to me. I offer compassionate support and collaboration throughout these stages, helping women navigate each transition with insight and care.

I work with folks who may not have received adequate emotional support during childhood. These clients may have grown up in environments where their positive experiences were not praised or validated, overly critical or perfectionist, or where their emotional needs were not met by their caregivers. As a result, they may struggle with issues such as insecurity, difficulty expressing emotions, dissociation/disconnection and challenges in forming and maintaining healthy relationships. In therapy, my aim is to help you build self-esteem, foster autonomy, and cultivate more fulfilling connections with others.

When we are on our way towards healing, we may face many roadblocks: past trauma, invalidating environments, our views of ourselves, among many others. While we are hard-wired to heal, it can be hard to do so when there are many factors getting in the way of our journey towards peace. Maybe standard talk therapy or CBT has not been helpful for you in the past, and you feel stuck. My passion is working with survivors of trauma or chronically invalidating environments who hope to build a life worth living.
