Hi there! My name is Emma Shandy Anway. I am a licensed married and family therapist seeing in-person clients in Midtown, Sacramento and am able to provide tele-health services throughout California, Washington state, and the United Kingdom.
I am dedicated to creating a safe, non-judgmental space in therapy where clients can explore and uncover their true selves. With a warm, approachable and direct style, I aim to empower individuals, couples, and partnerships to embrace growth, deepen intimacy, and cultivate a life that aligns with their values.
