Ann Schroeder

Counseling, for me, has always been about creating a safe place where people can breathe again. I believe every person carries an inner strength and sense of purpose, but sometimes life’s losses, transitions, or hurts can make us forget it’s there. My role is to provide a compassionate, judgment-free space where clients can reconnect with who they are and begin moving toward their future with hope.

I work with adults and couples facing a wide range of challenges—relationship struggles, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma, career changes, caregiver burnout, and the unique issues that come with aging. No matter what you’re carrying, I want you to know you don’t have to carry it alone.

Before becoming a counselor, I spent years in management roles in the oil and gas industry. What I loved most about that season of my life was mentoring people and helping teams work well together. Over the years, I’ve also volunteered with organizations like Star of Hope, where I mentored women moving from homelessness into the workforce, and Vantage Hospice, where I walked with families and caregivers during end-of-life care. These experiences deepened my belief in resilience and the power of human connection.

In the counseling room, I see our work together as a partnership built on trust. I draw from several well-established counseling approaches, tailoring each plan to the unique needs of the person in front of me. The goal isn’t just to manage symptoms—it’s to create real, lasting change.

On a personal note, I’ve been married to my high school sweetheart for many years, and together we’ve raised a wonderful son and now have the joy of a granddaughter who lights up our lives. When I’m not counseling, you’ll likely find me traveling with my husband, camera in hand, learning about new cultures, dancing, or diving into something new to keep growing.
