Background and approach

Her background includes work with grief, depression, and coping with major life changes. She has also supported people dealing with addictions, intimacy and relationship struggles, parenting strain, and compassion fatigue. Ann has experience addressing concerns related to HIV and hospice and end-of-life care.

Clinically, she draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Jungian Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. These approaches are used to understand emotions, reframe unhelpful thoughts, and build steady routines for coping. Ann has six years in a licensed clinical role and works with adults on a range of common life and mental health concerns.

She offers sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit different schedules and communication needs. For people who want a calm, practical collaborator, she aims to provide respectful, down-to-earth support.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online

Ann integrates Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in a way that fits virtual work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following what the client brings to the session, which helps people feel heard and understood during video or phone appointments. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) uses clear, practical exercises to notice and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, which can be practiced between sessions and reviewed in chat or messaging.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, symptoms, and preferences and then suggest approaches to try. This is a collaborative process and methods can be adjusted over time based on what helps most.

Online sessions offer real practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues when that helps. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging provide brief check-ins or ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to work on anxiety, stress, grief, and behavior changes without rearranging an entire day.
