The Gentle ReRoute
Holistic Mental Health Counseling & Hypnotherapy
Welcome to The Gentle ReRoute:
Therapy that treats you like a whole, layered, soulful human.
Welcome to The Gentle ReRoute. My name is Anna Long and I started this private therapy practice to help people navigate through life’s ups and downs. Whether you’re struggling with depression, anxiety or are simply feeling overwhelmed with big life changes, I’m here as a gentle guide to help you find your way back to yourself.
THERAPEUTIC APPROACH
-

Safe & Transparent
Therapy works best when we're open with each other, and that can only happen in a space that feels genuinely safe. My clients consistently tell me this is their favorite part of our work together—no judgment, just honest exploration.
-

Body-Energy Informed
Your body and energy hold crucial information about what's working, what's not, and what you're ready to shift. I help you tune into and trust that inner communication to create change at a deep level.
-

Compassionate & Real
I'm not here to fix you or rush you toward "healed." I'm here to walk alongside you as you process what you're ready to release and discover what comes next.
Hey, I’m Anna Long and I’m glad you found your way here.
I’m an LCSW and fellow human who knows how disorienting life transitions can feel.
Most of my clients are navigating some kind of identity shift:
A relationship that is ending. A job that is draining the life out of them. Or struggling to make sense of a version of themselves just doesn't fit anymore.
Outwardly, they're high-functioning.
Inwardly? It's a swirl of anxiety, overthinking, and low-key existential questions like: "Is this it?" "Am I doing life wrong?" "Why do I keep ending up in the same patterns?"
If that resonates, you're not alone. And you're in the right place.
My Approach
I blend evidence-based therapy (like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) with Somatic and Energetic work to help you feel more grounded, clear, and connected to your inner compass.
No toxic positivity.
No spiritual bypassing.
No rushing to silver linings.
Just real talk, practical tools, and space to shift what’s not working.
Are we a fit?
Clients often come to me feeling:
Fried from burnout and constant “doing”
Tired of people-pleasing and perfectionism
Disconnected from their body, joy, or sense of self
Craving more authenticity, clarity, and peace
Unsure how to actually slow down, feel, or reset
Anxious about their increasing anxiety (yep, that’s a thing)
We work together to help you:
Tune inwards and reconnect with your values
Create small, actionable plans to help you move towards your goals (both internal and external).
Reconnect to your body’s wisdom (instead of just your brain)
Rewire your energy to find more inner peace and mindfulness
Build a life that feels like you again
Next Steps:
Book a Consultation call. During this call, we can determine if our dynamic feels compatible. If not, there is absolutely no hard feelings and I can try to recommend you to a colleague who might be a better fit.
Book your first session. You will be asked to fill out a few forms electronically before this session takes place. Find. suitable time via my online calendar and book your session. Most clients see me weekly for the first month or two and then transition to every other week, as needed.
Session Times. My schedule is Monday-Thursday 10am-2pm. If you are unable to make time for therapy during those hours, I would recommend that you do not book a consult call as we would not be able to move forward with finding suitable session times on a regular basis.
Paying for Therapy. At this time I only accept cash and a few select insurances (Regence/Blue Cross, Providence and PacificSourse). If you have out-of-network insurance, you will be responsible for paying for sessions up front and each month I will send you a Superbill and you can navigate reimbursement with your insurance company.
