Anna O´Keefe
Anna came to the Your Life Live It (YLLI) family soon after returning home to New Zealand in October 2020. In the year previous, both Anna and her oldest son were diagnosed with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) which answered many questions she had about herself but raised others. After attending a seminar offered by the Dyslexia Foundation NZ, Anna was able to access NLP coaching herself with the support of the Cookie Time Charitable Trust. The freedom Anna experienced using NLP to access her unconscious mind inspired her to learn more about these amazing techniques. With the care and guidance of the YLLI family, in May 2022 Anna graduated with three Board Approved and Certified Accreditations: NLP Practitioner, NLP Coach and Timeline Therapy Practitioner.
With a Bachelor of Arts in Social Policy and a Master of Management (both from Massey University), Anna has enjoyed a 20-year career in large government organisations, in New Zealand and across the Pacific. To help balance her work and family life, Anna is now self-employed as a management consultant, largely around the Pacific in countries such as Papua New Guinea, Solomon Island, Nauru and Niue, but also closer to home in Christchurch, Anna is also an Accredited 5- Step Practioner for Family Drug Support Aotearoa (New Zealand) and volunteers time to supporting family members struggling with the alcohol or other drug use of a loved one.
Anna has two wonderful young sons and has been parenting alone for almost ten years. She also has a lot of experience with compulsive behaviours (her own and other peoples). Anna has very gratefully been separated from alcohol for almost five years. Life has taken Anna on many unexpected pathways. She has experienced sexual and other trauma as a young person, and she is living proof that there is always another sunrise, even after the darkest of nights. Anna has accessed many forms of therapeutic and other support throughout her life, but NLP has proven far more effective than all others.
Whatever your own experience of life, you have survived every single day so far. Like Anna, You are a survivor. Committed to enjoying every day of her life – Anna would love to help you do the same.
"I used to believe life was happening to me. Now I know it is happening for me, and I am able to dress up and show up for all of it. Whatever your struggle, please reach out – without obligation. I'm always happy to chat."
