Embrace Self-Care Without Guilt
Choose Vitality Instead of Burnout
Hello there, friend!
I am Anna, and I am so glad you are here!
I'm Anna Lianna-Monnier, a passionate psychologist on a mission to make a positive impact on the lives of caregivers like you. As a wife, mother, and experienced professional, I intimately understand the unique challenges and pressures that come with the role of a caregiver.
I've been exactly where you are – in the beautiful yet challenging position of a caregiver.
I’ve had to balance multiple roles that drained me emotionally and physically. From supporting my clients’ therapeutic needs, to holding my newborn as he went through surgery after surgery, and more recently helping people through war trauma.
I’ve been through caregiver burnout twice, I know how difficult it is but also that there is a better way!
If you feel burned-out and want to learn to take better care of yourself ...
Your Well-Being Is My Mission !
Now, when I am armed with my expertise as a psychologist and my personal journey, I'm here to guide you!
You might find this guidance needed and valuable if any of these points below resonate with you :
-
You constantly put everyone else's needs ahead of your own.
-
Each day feels like a sprint, yet you're no closer to your own dreams.
-
Your life lacks the time and energy for the things that bring you joy.
-
Your own needs, desires, and goals constantly take a back seat.
-
You're teetering on the edge of burnout, feeling overwhelmed.
-
You want to prioritize self-care but don't know where to start.
How Does It Start For All Of Us...
Growing up, we're conditioned to put others first. This becomes even more ingrained when we're caregivers, often causing us to forget our own needs. We overextend ourselves, believing exhaustion is normal. We think self-care is selfish, and we rarely prioritize it until we're unwell.
But It Doesn't Have to Be That Way!
We can be caring and empathetic while caring for ourselves too. Whether you're a new mother, a sibling caring for a family member, or a professional caregiver, remember this:
"When you're well and recharged, everyone you care for wins!"
Now, if you're wondering how to implement guilt-free self-care, I'm here for you!
My signature program, "True Self-Care For You" empowers you to live life to the fullest without burning out.
My holistic approach teaches you to:
-
Practice self-care without guilt
-
Prevent caregiving frustration and overwhelm by setting healthy boundaries
-
Align self-care with your season of life
-
Establish a sustainable pace for all your activities
-
Make self-care a lifestyle, not just an occasional reward
WHY ME?
The heart behind my program
My journey as a caregiver began with the birth of my courageous boy, Jean. From the very start, Jean faced health challenges that required multiple surgeries and constant care. This experience thrust me into the demanding role of a caregiver, where I learned firsthand the toll it can take on one's physical and emotional well-being. I faced burnout not once but twice.
It was these personal trials that fueled my determination to create a program that could help others avoid the pitfalls of burnout and discover a path to vitality. I realized that intentional self-care is the key, and I wanted to share this transformative knowledge with caregivers like you.
I’m your guide as:
Experienced Psychologist: With years of professional experience in psychology, I bring a deep understanding of the human mind and behavior to guide you effectively.
Optimistic Encourager: Friends describe me as an eternal optimist and a radical encourager. I believe in the power of positivity and empathy to inspire change and growth.
Devoted Mother: Being a proud mom to Jean has taught me the true meaning of selflessness and unconditional love, qualities I bring to my work with caregivers.
I'm here to bring hope, revive spirits, and inspire you to live your best life. Together, we'll navigate the challenges of caregiving, prioritize self-care, and pave the way to a more balanced and fulfilling life.
Let's embark on this transformative journey together
