Anna Bellard

I'm Anna Bellard, LCSW, a trauma therapist with nearly a decade of experience supporting adults through anxiety, PSTD, and the lasting impact of trauma. I specialize in EMDR therapy and somatic-based approaches that help clients heal not just mentally, but through the nervous system as a whole.

I earned my Bachelor's degree in Psychology at the University of Vermont and completed my Master of Social Work at University of Denver in 2020. My clinical background includes inpatient psychiatric care, adult partial hospitalization (PHP), and dual-diagnosis treatment, where I worked with complex trauma, mood disorders, and substance use.

Overtime, my work led me to focus on individual therapy for adults seeking deeper healing, emotional regulation, and reconnection with themselves. My approach is warm, collaborative, and direct.

My approach to therapy is trauma-informed, collaborative, and individualized. I work from a nervous system-focused lens and draw from EMDR therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Polyvagal Theory, and somatic (body-based) practices. I have a certificate in trauma-focused yoga therapy as well.

In your first session, we will focus on getting to know you, understanding what brings you to therapy, and identifying your goals. I aim to provide a supportive, inclusive, and non-judgmental space and will offer guidance around the therapy process, including EMDR when appropriate.
