Background and approach

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and change patterns. Solution-Focused and Motivational Interviewing techniques are used to set clear, achievable goals. Sessions are tailored to each person’s needs and strengths.

Ann helps people facing trauma, addiction, grief, parenting strain, career shifts, body image issues, and LGBTQ concerns. She also supports people coping with blended family dynamics, adoption and foster care matters, caregiver stress, and co-morbidity challenges. Her approach blends practical tools with self-reflection.

Clients work on small, concrete changes and learn skills for long-term coping. Ann emphasizes communication, boundaries, and problem-solving to improve daily life. Therapy can be done by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

People who prefer English conversations will find sessions offered in that language. To begin, a short matching questionnaire helps connect someone to an appropriate schedule and session format.

Online support

Approach-focused online therapy that fits your life

Ann often uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person's concerns and build a trusting working relationship. This approach focuses on listening, reflecting, and helping clients set the pace and topics for each session. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another common tool she uses to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors that reduce anxiety, depression, and relationship strain.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ann will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting plans together so the therapy feels useful and manageable.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people use body language and longer conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is an issue. Live chat and text messaging work well for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options make scheduling more flexible and help therapy fit into busy routines.
