Testimonials

Here what others have to say about Anna...


“I once had the pleasure of co-facilitating a Buddhist Meditation retreat with Anna Switzer. She brought a unique sort of expertise to the retreat which I had never experienced before. She led our participants into the natural environment, and used the nature around us to help people go deeply into themselves and to explore their authentic nature. The results were remarkable, and I loved it! Anna has a level of wisdom and experience that is not often found in this world.”

“Anna has done a significant amount of resource development for us to support our community building and educator training work. She's leveraged her educator experience and various other areas of expertise to contribute great ideas and craft thoughtful, well-executed deliverables for us. We've also appreciated how incredibly reliable, independent, and collaborative she's been in the process. She's always open to feedback and interested in lifting up additional voices, particularly those closest to end users. I would enthusiastically recommend working with her to any of my colleagues or peers.”

“Dr. Switzer is a deeply knowledgeable instructor with so much experience, I feel lucky to have had the opportunity to take one of her courses. It was such a perfect combination of personal growth and professional introspection. I feel like what I gained from her class will benefit my students (and me!) for years to come."
