About Anne
Anne listens with attention and responds with practical, down-to-earth suggestions. She tailors conversations and plans to each person's goals. Sessions aim to make daily life a little easier and more manageable, one step at a time.
Her work draws on several therapy styles, including attachment-based thinking, client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral strategies, psychodynamic ideas, and Internal Family Systems. She draws from these to match tools to the problem at hand rather than using a single fixed method.
Over 20 years she has supported people dealing with adoption and foster care challenges, caregiver stress, aging and geriatric issues, cancer-related concerns, substance-related struggles, mood and personality difficulties, obsessive and panic symptoms, and complex family patterns. She approaches these topics with sensitivity to the personal history that often shapes current problems.
Starting therapy with Anne is framed as a collaborative effort. She works with each person to set clear goals, outline options, and adjust the plan as progress is made. Her style is calm, practical, and rooted in respect for each person's experience.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Anne often integrates attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioral techniques in her work. Attachment-based approaches look at how early relationships shape how people connect and respond to stress, and they can be useful for family conflict and caregiver concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers practical strategies for anxiety, panic, and mood symptoms.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each person to identify goals, try different strategies, and adjust methods based on what proves most helpful. That collaborative process helps shape whether more insight-focused work or skills-based practice is emphasized.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as session formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, cut time spent commuting, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people use a video or a phone call depending on what feels most practical for them. The focus is on making therapy usable and relevant to everyday routines.
