Annie Sayers, MSW, Licensed Therapist

Hi. I am Annie and I'm a trauma and compassion-focused therapist, working remotely in California. You are used to holding it together for everyone elsebut lately, something feels off. Maybe you feel disconnected from yourself and others, on edge, or you can't stop thinking about what youve seen. Many of my clients are helpers: healthcare professionals, first responders, veterans, and caregivers who have been deeply impacted by what theyve seen and carried. Others come to me after a medical crisis, ICU stay, or health-related trauma that has changed how they see themselves and the world. As a former ICU Social Worker with 14 years of experience, and over 20 years in the mental health field, I offer a steady, trauma-informed space where you dont have to explain the intensity of what youve been through. Using evidence-based approaches, well work together to help you process these experiences, reconnect with yourself, and find a greater sense of calm and clarity. If youve been carrying more than you should have to carry alone, you dont have to keep doing this by yourself. Lets talk.

I also write a blog for people looking for support from high stress occupations (health care professionals, first responders, military, caregivers). It's entitled "Thriving with AGS" (my initials) and can be found in my website at the link above.
