Hi, I’m Anne Giles.

I’m a Midwest native, a trauma-informed therapist with a deep passion for helping individuals heal, grow, and reconnect with their true selves. My journey into therapy has been shaped by my belief in the power of self-awareness, vulnerability, and holistic healing. I bring a compassionate, client-centered approach to every session, believing that you, as the expert of your own life, have the wisdom needed to create meaningful change.

I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Palo Alto University, and my training spans several modalities that uniquely support healing. I am certified in Brainspotting I, which allows me to help clients process trauma at a neurological level, and I am a Certified Life Coach through IPEC. My background also includes extensive training in spiritual psychology, with certifications in Soul Centered Living I & II and Consciousness Health and Healing from The University of Santa Monica. These programs have shaped my understanding of the mind-body-spirit connection, and I incorporate these teachings into my therapeutic approach. Additionally, I am a certified Dive Master from PADI, an experience that has deepened my appreciation for mindfulness, presence, and connection to the natural world.

Together, we will work to explore and release emotional blocks, build resilience, and create a life aligned with your values. Whether you’re navigating trauma, relationship challenges, or simply seeking personal growth, I’m here to support you on your journey to healing.

MY VALUES

I recognize that healing is a complex, multi-faceted process. I honor the mind-body connection, understanding that our emotions and experiences are not just mental but are often stored in the body. With each session, I create a space where you can explore your feelings, patterns, and past experiences in a way that promotes deep healing and self-awareness. While I may use specific tools and techniques like mindfulness, somatic practices, and Brainspotting, I always center the human experience and ensure that our work is tailored to your unique needs.
