"Your story is still being written"
What we offer
Individual psychotherapy and counselling for challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and life's harder transitions — with specialised support for performers and artists.
Saga Psyche offers evidence-based, trauma-informed psychotherapy in a warm, collaborative space where you're genuinely seen and heard. As an integrative therapist, Annika draws on a range of modalities, such as psychodynamic, person-centred, existential, metacognitive, somatic, and cognitive behavioural (CBT) approaches, tailoring her approach to your individual needs and story rather than fitting you into one framework.
She works with people navigating depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, grief and loss, burnout, relational difficulties, life transitions, and self-esteem concerns. She also offers specialised performance and wellbeing coaching for singers and artists facing performance anxiety or creative blocks.
Saga Psyche is a welcoming space for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, LGBTQIA+ people, and neurodivergent people, among others. Annika brings academic study in Indigenous studies alongside an ongoing commitment to cultural safety, humility, and learning in her practice.
A name with meaning
Saga is an Old Norse word, still alive in the Swedish language today, meaning an epic story or journey of significance. Psyche is the Ancient Greek word for soul and self, the very root of psychotherapy. Brought together, Saga Psyche speaks to something simple and profound: that within every person lives a story of depth, meaning, and the possibility of change.
❋ A relational spaceTherapy works best when you feel truly seen. Annika prioritises building a warm, collaborative relationship where you can show up honestly and be met with care.
❋ AN INTEGRATIVE APPROACHDrawing on a range of evidence-based models, Annika tailors her approach to you because no two people, or journeys, are the same.
❋ TRAUMA-INFORMED PRACTICEEverything is paced with your safety in mind. You are never pushed beyond what feels right, and your nervous system is always part of the conversation.
❋ COACHING FOR ARTISTSFor artists seeking to deepen their practice, Annika offers a unique space to explore the relationship between inner life and creative expression, where personal insight and artistic growth can flourish together.
