Anne Zakaras
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, ATR-BC, PMH-C
Parenting is one of the most rewarding journeys life can offer—but it can also be incredibly isolating, overwhelming, and exhausting. Whether you are navigating the intense identity shifts of the postpartum period, struggling with the daily invisible load of raising a family, or facing deep professional and parental burnout, Anne provides a warm, non-judgmental, and deeply collaborative space just for you. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Certified Perinatal Mental Health Specialist (PMH-C), she partners with mothers, fathers, and caregivers to build the emotional resilience needed to show up for their children without losing themselves.
Anne’s integrative approach goes beyond standard parenting advice. By combining traditional psychotherapy with Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and creative art therapy, she helps parents regulate their own nervous systems, manage reactive parenting triggers, and process the anxiety or depression that often flies under the radar. Whether you are navigating a difficult family transition, dealing with parental grief, or balancing parenting alongside a chronic illness or medical diagnosis, Anne is dedicated to helping you develop practical coping strategies to move from a state of survival to one of connection and calm.

Mun & Mind Therapy PLLC
Psychologist
Parenting can be one of life's most rewarding experiences, but it can also be one of the most challenging. Many parents find themselves balancing the desire to raise emotionally healthy children while navigating their own stress, relationships, cultural values, and family expectations. Whether you are struggling with behavioural concerns, communication difficulties, co-parenting challenges, parenting through separation, or simply feeling overwhelmed by the demands of caregiving, therapy can provide support and guidance.
At Min & Mind, we recognize that parenting does not happen in isolation. Our own childhood experiences, cultural backgrounds, and family dynamics often influence how we approach parenting today. We help parents better understand their children, strengthen connection, navigate conflict with confidence, and develop parenting strategies that align with their values. Our goal is to support families in creating relationships built on trust, understanding, resilience, and emotional wellbeing.
