Annalise Dowd AMFT

I bring experience from both private practice and school-based settings, where I’ve supported diverse individuals and communities. I take a trauma-informed approach, prioritizing emotional regulation, safety, trust, and collaboration. In our work together, you can expect warmth, patience, non-judgment, and maybe even a little humor. I view therapy as something we do together, to help you find more harmony in your life, relationships, and overall well being.

I’m currently in the process of completing the Perinatal Mental Health Certificate through Postpartum Support International. I work primarily with clients navigating fertility challenges, grief and loss, pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, matrescence, shifting identity, and relationship changes. I also support teens and college students through a strength-based lens—helping them build confidence, clarify goals, and grow into their sense of self. For young adults, I offer support through life transitions, anxiety, depression, breakups, and grief.
