Anna Kraft (They/She)

As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I enjoy supporting others who identify as LGBTQ as well as those who are questioning or exploring their gender identity and sexual orientation. I have specialized training in supporting gender expansive individuals, including exploring gender identity, navigating gender expression, and providing letters of support for those seeking gender affirming medical care.

Trauma can impact us in many ways, including changing how our body feels (e.g. restless, on edge) and how we perceive ourselves as well as the world (e.g. "no one can be trusted," "I can't trust myself"). I have specialized training and experience in helping individuals heal from trauma, including attachment wounds, sexual abuse, and complex trauma. I have training in Brainspotting, Somatic work, Parts Work, and Polyvagal Therapy.

Through psychodynamic therapy, I support individuals in understanding themselves more deeply and recognizing patterns that may not be serving you any more. We will work together to develop new insights, self-awareness, and behavior that will help you live authentically and to break free of old patterns.

Brainspotting is an effective tool to support individuals who want to heal deeply. Brainspotting is a mind-body based approach that works by identifying, accessing, and reprocessing stored trauma. This approach can be used for a variety of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and low self-esteem.

Imago Relationship Therapy supports couples in turning conflict into opportunities for growth and connection. Through the Imago framework, I support couples in developing secure communication that creates a safe space for exploring each other's perspectives, meeting unmet needs, and addressing the root cause of conflict. I support couples in learning how to truly listen to each other, repair from conflict, and deepen their connection.

I address relationship issues via individual counseling as well as couples/relationship counseling with partner(s). I support clients in exploring and addressing relationship issues, including improving communication, navigating relationship conflict, and establishing meaningful relationships. I incorporate attachment theory, Imago Relationship Therapy, and DBT to support you in understanding your relationship needs and learning effective tools to support your relationships.

Trauma impacts us in many ways, including impacting our nervous system (e.g. feeling on edge or shut down) or changing how we perceive ourselves and the world (e.g. "I can't trust anyone"). I support individuals in healing from trauma through a variety of approaches, including Brainspotting, Polyvagal Therapy, and Somatic work.
