Meet the founder and sole therapist of Bespoke Clinical Counselling. Anna Gwozdz is a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC) and practices as a Psychotherapist and Clinical Counsellor with the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA). She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and completed her Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology with Honours, in addition to the countless independent therapy hours and extracurricular trainings she has accrued throughout her career.

Anna spent years working in an intensive therapeutic program for severely traumatized children, adolescents, and their adult caretakers, supporting all ages in overcoming trauma, building and maintaining healthy relationships, and dealing with extremely difficult emotions, behaviours, and habits. She spent another few years working in a private healthcare clinic alongside some of the best practitioners in the field, including Physiotherapists, Acupuncturists, Osteopaths, and Massage Therapists. This experience gave Anna the invaluable opportunity to further strengthen her knowledge of the connection between mind and body, which she now integrates into her professional approach to mental health.

Aside from a sincere passion for mental health and helping others navigate all the things that make us human, Anna loves to go camping in the summer and downhill skiing in the winter. She spends much of her free time listening to music or podcasts, reading or watching movies, trying out new recipes, going for walks, or simply hanging out with her friends and loved ones, including her quirky cat, Bean!

“I offer a strength-based, person-centered, and trauma-informed approach. That means I know you already have what it takes to overcome and surpass anything you’ve been through or may still be going through…we may just need to do a little digging together to make sure you’re using those tools to the best of your abilities, and that we’ve addressed anything from your past that may be blocking you from living the life you want.

Therapy isn’t always about rain clouds and tears. It’s important to sprinkle some fun in there, too! I’ll make sure we never forget to celebrate your wins and that we have some laughs along the way. I cannot wait to meet you.” -Anna Gwozdz CCC, HonMACP, BAPsych
