“Unlike what some of my friends describe with their therapists, Anna isn't just here to validate every feeling or action. She gives me feedback, she tells me when I'm wrong, she helps me build better habits for the future. She's patient with me in my moments of trial and error. And last, but certainly not least (actually most), Anna has helped me find my voice as a woman of color. Before Anna, I debated finding a brown therapist who matched my demographic, but I often felt alienated by that community, not religious or cultural enough for one, sometimes too brown for another. Anna has embodied the true nature of an ally and has helped me when I needed guidance as a woman in her 30s navigating love, work and life.”

”​I have encountered powerful educators. I have interacted with powerful inspirers. Dr. MM has somehow managed to effortlessly merge the two and then embed that into my heart and mind. She has a way of bringing out the best and naming things in me that I didn’t know were possible. She believes in me, and challenges me to expand and deepen without demoralizing me. She makes me want to be a better student and human without pressure or manipulation.”
