Are you ready to come home
to yourself?
Annie Byrne is a Registered Psychological Counsellor
practicing an Integrated Holistic approach to therapy
Meet Annie
We are each on our own paths to healing.
When we come together to navigate this path,
magical shifts start to happen.
As a holistic practitioner, I consider all the unique parts of you. My primary objective is to help guide you to new, healthier ways of navigating both your internal and external worlds.
I believe that the body, mind and spirit are deeply interconnected and therefore cannot be treated in isolation from one another.
My therapeutic lense is one of authenticity, genuine curiosity and empathy. I use my background in Mindfulness and Narrative therapy to hold a safe and nurturing environment for your healing and self-growth.
I am a big advocate for self-love and a big part of therapy with me will be developing your relationship with yourself; learning to trust yourself deeply and, essentially, learning the tools to become your own healer.
I hope to show you that you already have the answers you are searching for, within you and that you have the capacity to feel healthy and whole.
