With a background in public health and extensive experience as a clinical health educator, Anim brings a unique and holistic approach to mental health and consulting.

Anim is passionate about empowering Black women to heal from the effects of trauma and live fulfilling joyful lives. She is an active listener who creates a safe and supportive space for her clients to process their experiences, identify their strengths, and work towards their goals.
