Anna is a trauma-informed nervous system coach specialising in polyvagal theory and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), with a particular focus on how coercive control rewires the nervous system, shapes attachment patterns, and leaves its own architecture behind. She helps people map what happened to them, understand why it worked, and rebuild trust in their own instincts — reclaiming their voice, their boundaries, and their sense of self.

This work is deeply lived for Anna. For years, she suppressed her own voice, doubted her own perception, and made herself smaller to keep the peace – long before she had the language for what was happening or why. Finding her way back to herself is what shapes the way she holds this space now: with patience, without judgement, and with a clear understanding of how hard it is to trust yourself again after you've been taught not to.

Anna guides others through nervous system regulation, somatic awareness, and values-based action, integrating evidence-based practice with deep respect for each person's autonomy and inner knowing.

Anna holds certifications in Polyvagal Therapy, ACT, Trauma-Informed Coaching, Breathwork (NZAB 80-Hour + currently completing 400-Hour Sacred Breath Academy training), NLP, Hypnotherapy, and a Diploma in Psychology & Counselling.

Her work is grounded, compassionate, and boundaried – honouring both nervous system science and the spiritual dimensions of healing. This is a space where you're seen, believed, and supported to trust yourself again.
