Testimonials
"When I was going through some difficult times in my life, Anni offered me what I needed - whether I knew it or not: shelter, safety, beauty, non-judgement, deep listening, beautiful vistas, compassionate heart, the space to be until the cloud lifted and I was able to process what I needed to."
- Program participant
"The experience I just had at Whispering Herd was calm, beautiful, rich, emotional, ecstatic, insightful, paced to my rhythm. Tamrah was patient, present, gentle, alert, willing, supportive. She was clear in her responses and let me see when my communication or intention was clear and safe and when it was not. As I adjusted, she adjusted."
- Day Retreat participant
"In her work with clients Anni was observed to be respectful, non-pathologizing and able to focus on client strengths. She was appropriately transparent and able to hold her own power but not overpower in the therapist-client relationship. In her group work Anni was always prepared for the session and good at reading the energy level of the group and adjusting the pace and content as needed. Anni has a gift for therapy work and has the potential for excellence in her field."
