“Rooted in childhood abandonment and shame, love addiction plagues thousands of people every day, often without their knowing why their relationships continue to fail. By bravely disclosing her own story, Annie brings home the true nature of this destructive condition and shows how sufferers can learn a healthy way of relating. Her long experience as a therapist working with addiction makes her ideally placed to guide you in examining your own history and find the true you in the process.”
“A courageous and intimate account of a prevalent and all too familiar story. Annie captures her audience with an intense and gripping portrayal of personal experience. Love Addicts and practitioners alike will benefit greatly from reading ‘The Love Trap’. It offers a balanced and accessible view of the problem as well as hope and commitment toward healing and a life of continued recovery. Thank You Annie!”

A definite reference guiding book for me that has had a powerful impact on me. Thank you Annie for helping me to take my therapeutic work to deeper level as a therapist, as a clinical supervisor and to help me to make sense of my personal journey too!”

“I would say that Annie has been the single most positive influence on my recovery since I’ve started working with her about 4 years ago. I have grown a great deal with Annie’s facilitation, I trust her implicitly, and I value working with her tremendously. Annie is great!”
“Annie gave me the courage to explore my past and face up to the future, and new future where I didn’t have to follow in my families footsteps. She is kind, patient and taught me that I didn’t have to live the life my family set up for me, she showed me anther way, and without her I know my life would be not half what it is today.
I feel that Annie goes beyond her duties and she really cares for her clients, and for me, knowing that someone cared for me, even though I was often showing my worst points, really made me believe that I was worthy.”
“I have worked with Annie for many, many years in my previous role as a Hospital Director. During this time she has provided all the clients that I have sent her with the upmost care, compassion and skill. I have seen them all thrive in her professional and safe hands and as such I highly recommend her as a psychotherapist.”
