Meet Annie

Here's what people notice first about Annie: you can tell her anything.

Not in a therapist-analyzing-you way. Not in a guru-preaching-at-you way. In an "I can't believe I'm telling you this" way — the kind of safety that makes people finally exhale and say what's really happening.

That quality — the ability to create genuine safety without judgment — is something Annie has been cultivating and practising her whole adult life. It isn't a technique. It's who she is.

For five years, Annie ran The Playground of the Senses — a physical space in Ucluelet, BC that became a landing place for people navigating love, intimacy, and honest communication. Drawing on her background in healing arts, life coaching, mindfulness, and somatic practice, she worked with individuals and couples across the full spectrum of human connection — helping people find the words for things they'd never been able to say out loud.

Annie is a Certified Life Coach (Academy of Modern Applied Psychology, Kain Ramsay) and Certified Community Support Worker. She's written and delivered sex education and relationship curriculum. She's taught life skills to adults with developmental disabilities. She's held space for people navigating grief, disconnection, desire, and everything in between.

What runs through all of it is the same thing: curiosity without judgment. A genuine interest in each person's inner life — their desires, fears, patterns, and possibilities. Annie doesn't arrive with a script. She arrives with presence.

Her approach weaves together communication, body awareness, and mindfulness — not as separate tools, but as one integrated practice. Because real connection doesn't happen in your head. It happens when your body, heart, and voice are finally telling the same story.

Annie knows what it's like to be in relationships where honesty was punished. And she knows what it's like to build one where truth is celebrated. That lived experience — not just theory — is what she brings to Truth Circles.

At Touching Truth, Annie creates the container where people can finally exhale and say what's really happening. Where being honest doesn't have to be terrifying. Where you can learn to speak your truth and be heard.
