About
Annette Burns Porter
Since 1999, I have been dedicated to helping clients enhance their well-being and improve their quality of life. My primary goal is to provide a supportive, empowering environment where clients feel motivated to make meaningful changes. Central to this process is building a strong therapeutic alliance based on mutual respect, collaboration, and trust.
I approach therapy with a deep appreciation for each person's individuality, encouraging the gradual integration of their psychological, emotional, intellectual, creative, and spiritual selves. Using evidence-based techniques and a client-centered perspective, I strive to meet individuals where they are on their journey.
Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with clients from diverse backgrounds facing a wide range of challenges, including depression, anxiety, mood disorders, trauma, grief and loss, substance use, interpersonal concerns, life transitions, stress management, and other mental health and adjustment issues. It is an honor to accompany my clients as they navigate these challenges and move toward greater self-awareness, resilience, and fulfillment
