Hello! I'm Anneta; a Registered Psychologist with the College of Alberta Psychologists and the founder of Embrace Psychological Services. I was born in Ghana and immigrated to Toronto, Ontario in my early teens. I moved to Calgary in late 2007 however the lovely city of Airdrie has been home since summer 2016.
I'm passionate about working with individual adults, couples and parents. Some of my specialties include anxiety, relationship concerns, relationship based parenting (Circle of Security Parenting), trauma, PTSD, depression and perinatal mental health.
I’m constantly inspired by clients courage and positive intention for change and personal growth. I use a variety of evidence-based approaches based on clients specific needs in therapy, however a huge priority of mine is ensuring our therapeutic connection is genuine. It's an honour to hold a welcoming and trusting space for clients as we explore ways to help better understand themselves and feel fulfilled on this journey called life.
When I'm not working, I enjoy spending time with my earthside kiddos, partner, family and friends, but also ensure I have moments of solitude. I love cooking spicy foods, listening and dancing to music, and engage in other self-care activities like walking and meditation.
