Anna Kynast
Registered Mental Health Counselor Intern
Anna is committed to walking with clients as they engage their stories and move towards greater wholeness, providing a space for them to be seen and heard. She believes that as humans we are whole beings, created by God with dignity and complexity in mind, body, and soul. In light of this, her goal is to create a safe and welcoming environment for clients to explore their stories, learn about themselves, and experience flourishing in their move toward greater emotional, physical, and spiritual health.
Anna is interested in working with individuals, couples, and groups dealing with relational struggles, life transitions, cross-cultural adjustment, spirituality, family-of-origin issues, abuse, and trauma.
Originally from the mountains of western North Carolina, Anna holds a Bachelor’s degree in Global Studies from Appalachian State University and a Master’s Degree in Counseling from Reformed Theological Seminary. Prior to joining the staff at Redeemer, Anna worked with international student homestay programs around the country, as well as in ministry with Reformed University Fellowship at Davidson College. Outside of the counseling room, Anna loves to do freelance graphic design as a creative outlet, as well as write, travel, and discover local restaurants with her husband, Tim.
