Anna Marson, PsyD, Registered Psychotherapist
Anna is a Registered Psychotherapist (CRPO) and Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCPA) with over 13 years of clinical experience. She is client-centred and collaborative, tailoring therapy to meet each person where they are at. She views clients as the experts of their own lives, working together to set goals and shape the therapeutic process.
Her work is inspired by the science of interpersonal neurobiology and neuroplasticity—the brain’s ability to change. She offers education on how thoughts, behaviours, relationships, and brain functioning interact. Many clients describe this knowledge as empowering, hopeful, and normalizing, providing a clear roadmap for healing.

Anna’s approach has been described as “compassionate and to the point.”

Therapeutic Approach

Anna provides neurodiversity-affirming, trauma-informed, and diversity-sensitive care through an integrative and holistic lens. She works at the intersection of brain, body, and mind, applying a science-informed framework to support healing on somatic, emotional, mental, and transpersonal levels.

Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)
