About Ann
Her style is direct and personable. Sessions focus on identifying what matters to the client and building short practical steps to test change. She uses straightforward conversation, reflection, and goal-focused exercises rather than long lectures or passive listening.
Ann draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness to help people notice what gets in the way of action. She uses Motivational Interviewing to clarify ambivalence about change and Solution-Focused techniques to set small, doable goals. Client-Centered Therapy informs the way she follows a client’s lead in session.
In practical terms she helps people name values, practice skills in daily life, and adjust plans when something isn’t working. That often means breaking overwhelming problems into smaller tasks and tracking what helps. The emphasis is on repeatable steps you can try between sessions.
Ann keeps sessions grounded in real life and contemporary research. She encourages clear, measurable progress while respecting that change often happens slowly. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Ann often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people identify what they value and take small actions aligned with those values. ACT focuses on meaningful action even when uncomfortable thoughts or feelings appear. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and support clearer decision making; it is useful for anxiety, stress, and bouts of low mood. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative way to resolve mixed feelings about change and can help with addiction and habit-related concerns.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will review goals, try strategies, and adjust methods together so the plan fits the client’s needs and preferences. That collaborative testing helps find what actually produces progress in everyday life.
