“Engagement is one of Anna's great strengths as a person and as a clinician. She is savvy, sophisticated, and extremely perceptive…[and] approaches each new encounter with an open mind, curiosity, and respect for the person in front of her.…Anna has found ways to connect with both [adolescent] patients and families in a way to ease them into treatment.”
