At the heart of EdPath Coaching & Consulting is Anne Johnson, a professional who understands that the journey to higher education isn’t one-size-fits-all—especially for students navigating mental health concerns or learning differences. With fifteen years of high school experience and a deep background as a “thought work” practitioner, Anne pairs expert college placement strategy with a mindful, supportive approach to student success. Outside of her consulting practice, she manages a beautifully historic Irvington home filled with her two children, a supportive spouse, and a menagerie of pets, including two senior cats and a high-energy Goldendoodle. A self-help devotee and lover of the outdoors, Anne brings a unique blend of professional grit and empathetic “mom energy” to every family she guides, ensuring that every student finds a path that is as sustainable as it is successful.

My “must-have” product is…Farmacy Green Clean Makeup remover – it is the first step in my new skin care routine and it makes taking off makeup at the end of the day so easy!
