My true passion in life is helping others succeed and supporting them on the journey. Improving your intimate relationships and creating fulfilling family bonds are goals that energize me. Making sure that you feel understood and cared-for is my focus and greatest concern.

Helping people grow, change and heal is what draws me to doing therapy. I want you to feel comfortable working with me, so I focus on understanding and hearing you. I work collaboratively with you to create changes in areas that have been stuck or challenging.
Testimonials for New Growth’s Carlsbad Counselors
Andrea is a special soul. Her strength is her heart and passion to help people navigate life’s struggles. She’s the first person I turn to if I need someone to talk to about something that’s troubling me. She’s a great listener and has a way of helping me navigate an issue until I find my own answer.
Ryan A. Jones, LCSW
I highly recommend Anne. We worked together at Sharp’s Trauma program, and I appreciate how she fosters a non-judgmental sense of safety and how her approach is tailored to each individual’s unique needs. With her energy, expertise and compassionate demeanor, Anne effectively helps clients achieve greater peace, enhance their relationships and grow their sense of self.
Dana Kasper, Ph.D., LPCC
Anne demonstrates excellence in her clinical work by providing targeted treatment resulting in positive therapeutic outcomes. Her intellect drives her superior work in mental health care that is combined with warmth and kindness. It is without hesitation that I recommend her brilliance and natural gifting as a therapist with others.
