About Ann
In sessions she adapts talk and activities to fit individual needs. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thoughts and everyday habits. Client-Centered Therapy shapes her way of listening and responding so people feel heard while they set goals.
Ann has 14 years of experience working with a range of mood and behavior concerns, including ADHD, bipolar mood issues, OCD-related worries, and post-traumatic stress. She also supports people dealing with grief, relationship stress, parenting strain, eating and food-related issues, and problems with self-esteem and intimacy.
Her practice pays attention to patterns that keep people stuck - habits, thoughts, and reactions - and helps build alternatives that fit daily life. She uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused steps to encourage change without pressure.
Ann treats each person with sensitivity and compassion and tailors the plan to their situation. If you want a straightforward, practical approach that tackles thoughts and everyday habits, she may be a good match. Confirm current session options before booking.

How Ann’s approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting swept away by them and then choose actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, avoidance, and low mood. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real life, with small behavior changes to shift everyday habits and feelings. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and empathy so clients can lead the pace and focus of sessions.Figuring out the right approach is part of the work. Ann will collaborate with each person to see which methods suit their goals, needs, and preferences. Together they’ll try tools and adjust the plan based on what feels helpful.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and keeping momentum between appointments. Online work can make it easier to practice strategies that relate to daily routines and habits, and to check in more often if that helps.
