Anne Grenchus

Anne Grenchus is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York and a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Vermont with six years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, life changes, and compassion fatigue, and also supports people dealing with life purpose questions. Anne teaches master's level grief and loss courses at the University at Albany and has led continuing education workshops for professionals.

In sessions she uses practices grounded in current research to address anxiety, panic, grief, caregiver burnout, and complex post-traumatic stress. Conversations focus on what feels most urgent to the client. Anne talks through symptoms, patterns, and small steps that can be tried between meetings.

Because she teaches and trains other professionals, Anne keeps up with evidence-based approaches and their practical applications. That shows up in clear explanations of methods and straightforward suggestions for coping skills. She does not rely on jargon; instead she describes options and what to expect from them.

People come to Anne when a change leaves them unsure what to do next, when grief or trauma makes daily life harder, or when caregiving and illness drain their energy. Sessions look at immediate problems and the life patterns that feed them. She helps people consider values, practical adjustments, and ways to manage symptoms while weighing longer-term goals.

Anne is based in Vermont and conducts work in English. Her clinical roles in academia inform her practice, and she encourages prospective clients to confirm the current session options before booking.

Evidence-based techniques and remote sessions

Anne integrates evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address anxiety, panic, grief, and trauma. She draws on practices shown in current research to reduce panic symptoms and manage overwhelming emotion, describing specific exercises and breathing or grounding strategies that can be used between sessions. For grief and loss she uses structured, research-informed approaches that help people remember, process, and carry on with daily life while adjusting to change.

Finding the right method is part of the work together. Anne reviews options with each person, explains what different approaches involve, and helps decide which techniques best match the person’s needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as the work proceeds.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can also adjust pacing and homework to suit remote work, so sessions still focus on practical steps and symptom management while fitting into everyday routines.
