My Background
Anne Sinkey, MSW, PhD
My name is Anne, and I use she/her and they/them pronouns. I am a white, queer femme in my mid-40s. I bring experiences of privilege and poverty, trauma and healing, heartbreak and survival to our work as your queer life coach.
I don't pretend to have all the answers, but I do offer both experiential and research-backed knowledge to inform our connection. This includes a PhD in Culture, History and Theory with a certificate in Women's Studies from Emory University, as well as an MSW in Clinical Social Work from Portland State University. I've worked as a psychotherapist, professor, museum educator and diversity trainer. Volunteer and internship experiences include work with sex workers, people experiencing houselessness, on a women's crisis line and in a university counseling center. I'm engaged in continued education about effective integration of psychedelic experiences for personal growth. As a former therapist-turned-life coach, I offer skills and experience beyond many other practitioners with life coaching certifications.
While I have been coaching clients for over seven years, my background and credentials will help inform, but not define, our work together: you are always the expert of your life experience, and I hope you will teach me how best to show up in a way that is useful and supportive for you. Whether you're looking for an LGBTQ-affirming life coach, an experienced creativity coach, or a spiritual or psychedelic integration coach, I'm here to support you.
I live in Portland, Oregon where I keep a messy garden, sing off-key songs to my cat and admire lichens on slow hikes in the forest.

My fees are $125 for each 55-minute session (cash/check, PayPal or Venmo).
A limited number of sliding scale ($60 and up) slots may be available. If cost is a barrier for you, let's talk about your options for getting support, whether with me or elsewhere.
All sessions are held remotely via videoconference.
If you are interested in setting up a no-cost, initial 20-minute consultation to see if we'd be a good fit, please complete the contact form. Or, check my openings on Calendly and book a full session now.
