I started Zennit to provide a non-judgemental, welcoming place for people to reconnect with their own calm. I believe in the power of therapy and over my 15 years of experience as a registered psychologist I have seen amazing transformations of people overcoming incredibly difficult challenges. Everyone deserves the peace of a healthy mind and at Zennit our aim is to help you achieve this.
Specialized in military psychology
Ample experience in workers compensation
Background in forensic settings
Experienced in couples assistance
At Zennit, we are committed to building a genuine and grounded practice. To create a collaborative and honest place for communication to achieve your goals.
I have extensive background as a registered psychologist for over 15 years in public and private sectors. Including defence, Workers Compensation and forensic settings (namely juvenile justice).
My approach to counseling is client directed and is dependent on your needs and goals. I can be very practical and solution focused or more responsive, caring and empathic depending on what you determine your needs are at initial assessment. I have a keen interest in working with couples and families. I believe that good relationships can be central to psychological and physical well being. I have a special interest in sexual intimacy, trust, conflict and communication issues. My warm, caring approach and respectful non-judgemental manner helps provide a trusting, safe and collaborative environment to do this. I utilize cognitive- behavioral therapy, solution focused therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy and some components of positive psychology.
I have been involved in quite extensive research and education with some of the most advanced specialists in this field and we developed relationship and family counseling as an integral part of a pain management program as we found this could have more impact on the rehabilitation of somebody’s injury than working with the client alone.
I am particularly passionate and committed to assisting couples develop skills and the necessary resilience to tackle life problems. I like challenging presentations, particularly given my forensic background.

PATIENT REVIEW
“My life has changed considerably and this stems from the efforts Anna gives within the therapeutic session and the respectful challenge that is brought to the dynamic and exchange. I could write a whole lot more, but in summary I will say that Anna is respectful, humorous, and highly intelligent. If you are looking for a psychologist that creates that harmony, delicately challenges you, but ultimately champions for you…Anna is the person to see!”
