Reaching out for help takes courage, and for some that first step is weighted with anxiety. My goal as a counselor is to be a compassionate listener in a safe space, where the client is free to identify healthy/unhealthy behaviors, manage stress/anxiety and learn how to protect their mental space. Many of us are unaware of the unique relationship between the mind, body and spirit. In addition to the Cognitive Behavioral Theory, Better Days Counseling is committed to helping clients understand the effects of trauma, potential sources for unhealthy behaviors, and identifying automatic negative thoughts. Life at times can take its toll on one's health, and the pandemic has exposed the strengths and weaknesses of our mental capacity. Better Days Counseling can offer hope through healing by processing grief, trauma, and/or ways to promote personal growth.

Hi there, I'm Anna Gray. An LMFT who works with individuals and couples searching for a safe place to explore the difficulties of being human. None of us are immune to sadness, worry, grief, or relational hardship. Sometimes pressure, the heaviness of comparison, or stress can make us feel even more exposed. My priority is to support anyone ready to sort through difficult emotions and experiences so they can feel more united to their authentic self. Our time together will be spent uncovering the beauty, purpose, and strength inside you, and remembering the most important thing: you are worthy of love just as you are.

Do you feel lost and alone? Are you overwhelmed by anxiety or bitterness? Or is there a traumatic memory you can't seem to move past? You don't have do figure things out on your own. I offer both individual and couples counseling, with an emphasis on relationships and trauma. If you're struggling with relational wounds, grief related to a loss, or medically complicated situations, I would be honored to help you navigate a way forward. The only requirement is that you're willing to be curious and compassionate towards your story with me. One particularly effective method I use in therapy is Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). As a body-based approach, EMDR rewires the brain’s neural pathways and promotes the body’s natural healing. And when working with couples specifically, I incorporate Gottman Method Couples Therapy, which builds mutual support within the relationship. Just as counseling aided in my search for mental, emotional, and spiritual healing, I hope to facilitate lasting peace in the lives of my clients. If you're ready to take the next step forward, I am here to take that step with you. It may be intimidating, but my goal is for you to feel safe and at home with me. It would be a privilege to work with you.

You are taking an important step towards the kind of life you want to live by considering counseling. The point of counseling is to empower you to realize what you care about and engage in life in a way that honors your values. Whether you are facing difficulty, feeling stuck, or hoping to preserve optimal well-being, therapy can help you identify thoughts, emotions and behaviors that might interfere with your ability to live a meaningful life. I can help you feel more able and willing to accept your circumstances and tolerate distress in service of your goals and values. I work collaboratively with individuals to help them notice, challenge, and replace thoughts, emotions, memories, and behaviors that move them away from their goals and values. In doing so, we can take power and influence away from unhelpful patterns, ultimately freeing oneself from unnecessary suffering.
