About Ann

She speaks plainly and listens carefully to understand what feels most urgent for each person. Her approach is practical and respectful, and she aims to make the first steps feel doable.

With 14 years of experience, Ann adapts conversations and plans to fit each person’s situation. She uses a mix of approaches to help with mood shifts, trauma, and everyday struggles like work stress or relationship tension. Sessions emphasize clear goals and steps people can try between meetings.

How therapeutic approaches guide online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take small actions in line with those values while learning to sit with difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help with anger, anxiety, and life transitions by shifting attention toward meaningful choices rather than trying to eliminate discomfort. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and mood concerns. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience in every session, with the therapist offering a supportive, nonjudgmental space that helps people feel heard and make their own changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, preferences, and daily life. That might mean starting with supportive conversation, adding CBT exercises, or bringing in ACT ideas to guide behavior changes. The plan can shift as needs change.

Confirm the exact online session options before booking, since formats are set by the therapist's current practice. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. It also lets people use techniques and worksheets together during a session so they can practice strategies they want to use between meetings.
