Healing Anxiety, Trauma, and Low Self-Worth
Hi! I’m a heart-centered therapist in Newport Beach. I specialize in helping clients embrace and transform anxiety, trauma, and low self-worth.
The effects of anxiety and trauma can be felt on every level, often leaving you with a lingering sense of unease, self-doubt, reduced inner trust, or the belief that you're not good enough. Perhaps you're overly critical of yourself, feel overwhelmed, struggle to get things done, experience brain fog, and wish you had more focus, clarity, and energy.
In our work together, I help you build tools to balance your nervous system, deepen somatic awareness, deepen your inner connection, illuminate unconscious patterns, gain clarity, and move toward a more authentic and fulfilling life. I offer a holistic approach to therapy, gently guiding you to explore the deeper roots of your symptoms, listen to your inner wisdom, and transform limiting beliefs.
I work with clients navigating anxiety, trauma, low self-worth, uncertainty, depression, grief, and major life transitions.
Inviting Psychodynamic Therapy, EMDR, Dreamwork, Mindfulness, and Self-Compassion
Feel like Yourself again!I meet you where you are. I believe healing unfolds when we feel fully seen, heard, and valued. I support you through periods of feeling overwhelmed, anxious, uninspired, stuck, not feeling good enough, or feeling disconnected from your life path.
Through psychodynamic therapy, EMDR, dreamwork, mindfulness, and self-compassion, we explore the root causes behind your symptoms, helping you observe and transcend old patterns, perceptions, and behaviors. I help you improve somatic awareness, deepen your inner connection, gain clarity, and move toward a more authentic and fulfilling life.
Our therapy unfolds in a warm and heart-centered space where we gently explore the unconscious patterns that may be holding you back, and help you cultivate nervous system regulation and a deeper sense of self-awareness and inner trust. Together, we help you build confidence and feel more aligned with your true story.
I invite you to schedule a free consultation call where we can have a heart-centered conversation and explore if we are a good fit, and if therapy feels right for you.
In Gratitude,
Anna-Karin Bjorklund
