“I understand the importance of prioritizing your mental health and wellness. Making the decision to seek therapy is a significant step towards taking care of yourself and finding the support you need. Whether you are navigating messy relationships, big life shifts, substance use or the kind of anxiety that keeps you up at night, therapy with me can offer a safe and transformative space for exploration and healing.”
Anne Kissack, MA, LPC
Welcome To
Sound Counseling- where being heard matters
-
I work with women who are everyone's go-to person — except your own.
I help adult women manage anxiety, navigate relationship challenges, set boundaries without overwhelming guilt, struggling with substance use and build self-trust through life's transitions.
Are you:
The chronic people-pleaser who feels responsible for everyone's emotions.
The overthinker who replays conversations and worries about disappointing people.
The woman navigating relationship changes, family conflict, or shifting roles.
The high-functioning woman who looks like she has it together but feels overwhelmed internally.
The woman rebuilding her identity, confidence, or sense of direction during a life transition.

I’m a Connecticut-based mental health clinician, but more importantly, I’m a real person who believes therapy doesn't have to feel cold, intimidating, or overly clinical. I bring warmth, curiosity, honesty, and a little humor into my work. My goal is to create a space where you can feel comfortable being yourself—whether you're feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, uncertain, or simply tired of pretending everything is fine.
I do this work because I believe everyone deserves a space where they can be fully themselves—without having to hold everything together, keep everyone happy, or pretend they're fine. So many of us spend years taking care of everyone else while quietly wondering when it will finally be our turn. I’m passionate about helping clients better understand themselves, break free from patterns that no longer serve them, and build a life that feels more authentic, fulfilling, and truly their own.
My professional background has shaped my passion for supporting adults navigating anxiety, relationships, boundaries, people-pleasing, self-esteem, and life transitions. Through my education, clinical training, and ongoing professional development, I have continued to deepen my understanding of the complex experiences that bring people to therapy. I remain committed to ongoing learning and providing thoughtful, ethical, and individualized care that meets each client where they are.
My approach to therapy is collaborative, supportive, and honest. I won't tell you what to do or pretend I have all the answers to your life—but I will help you explore the patterns, thoughts, and experiences that may be keeping you stuck. Together, we'll build greater self-awareness, identify what you truly need, and work toward meaningful change. Sometimes that means processing difficult emotions, sometimes learning practical tools, and sometimes gently challenging the habits that aren't working anymore. There will also be room for humor along the way.
