More about me

Licensing: LCSW Years in Practice: 24 State: New York

Hello, my name Annie and I'm a licensed clinical social worker with over 20 years experience as a therapist. I have worked with a number of clients with a variety of concerns including depression, anxiety, stress, grief and loss, abuse and parenting issues. I also have a great deal of experience working with the geriatric population.

I received my educational training at Fordham University in New York City as a Master of Social Work. My professional training included working at New York Hospital-Cornell Medical Center on the dual diagnoses unit as well as Bedford Hills Correctional Facility in Bedford, NY.

My counseling style is a very open, warm, and relaxing exchange. I believe in a client-centered approach, and the most important aspect of the therapist/client relationship is for the client to feel comfortable. My approach includes Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy, and is tailored to meet the needs of the client individually.

I am aware of how difficult it can be to ask for help especially when one is at a low point in their life. I am here to accept, support, and guide you through this challenge and journey. It will be my pleasure to assist you. Thank you for your consideration!

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

She is great! Has given me advice and listen to me when I most needed. I hope to always reach out to her

Annie has been a great therapist helping me through a difficult time. She has helped tremendously. Very insightful. Very caring. Will continue seeing her as needed

Annie is very pleasant and kind. She always listens and has good things to say!

After trying countless therapist, I am so happy to finally be working with someone like Anne. She’s welcoming, non judgmental and just an all around blessing!

Great communication very attentive I love that! She Ask the right questions to bring the feelings out of you #Pro

Very good therapists.

Anne was excellent in helping me cope with the issues I was facing around my divorce. I would highly recommend her. I've met with multiple therapists and ultimately landed on her. She's top knotch.

I’ve been using BetterHelp for a couple months now and I really like how it’s there if you need it or not. I don’t have to leave my home and that’s one of best parts of it. Annie is great! I find that she has a lot of life experience that aligns with my own. She can relate which is something a lot of therapists lack. I am happy to be able to talk to someone who gets it and doesn’t look at me like I have three heads.

She is great, very understanding and makes me see things in different ways

very helpful counseling when needed

Annie is an incredible therapist. And she has been incredibly helpful in my mental health journey. From being super intelligent and knowledgeable about her craft to consistency and truly caring, it’s because of her that my BetterHelp experience has been so positive and beyond that, helpful. Prior to my work with Annie I didn’t believe therapy via video or any other way could be helpful. Annie proved my wrong. I’m thankful.

Ms Cummings is professional and a great listener. She challenges when a different view might be needed to bring better perspective but she is extremely supportive overall. I went into therapy/BetterHelp not really knowing what would happen but I’m really glad I made the choice to give it a try. Working with Ms Cummings has helped me to understand myself better. I’ve been able work on the things that are important to me that I was struggling with. I’ve enjoyed the experience.

Anne is kind attentive and professional

Anne is like sunshine in my life, always a nourishing add on. It’s easy to be comfortable and talk through things with her. She often has multiple different ways to approach any particular situation if one doesn’t work. Would highly recommend her!

Annie is caring and experienced. She understands my concerns and is very responsive.

Annie is an amazing therapist. Here counsel is instrumental in my every day interactions. I would recommend Annie to any and to all!

Annie has been great. Very responsive when I need her, even if I’m not responsive at times and just terrible at reaching out myself. She listens without judgment and has helped me deal with self esteem, depression, anxiety and family issues.

She is a great therapist! Listens very carefully and really cares for people.

Annie is awesome! Very friendly, knowledgeable and understanding.

Dr. Cummings has really helped me with my family problems and I felt safe and open to speak to her. She listens to you without judgement and really gets you thinking on what you can do to better yourself. She really is the best.

Annie was a great match for me. We are only in Florida for a few months, but due to big life changes I wanted help working through some tough transitions. Annie’s calm demeanor/friendly approach, coupled with her expertise, quickly put me at ease and made me feel like we could accomplish my goals even on such a compressed timeline. Highly recommend Annie and am grateful for the match.

She’s amazing , it’s been 3 weeks but it feels like forever. I’m forever grateful of meeting her and having a therapist like her.

Wonderful.

Annie. I could say so much about Annie - all positive. But I'd need a ton more space to write. If you want someone who's caring and shows that she's interested in helping you out, Annie's probably a good choice. :)

Annie is a professional, well educated in the therapy field & does a great job therapeutically for me. Thank you

Annie is very responsive especially when I text her. To me, that is the biggest and best part of this therapy style.

I have only had 2 sessions with Annie but she is so welcoming and has such a bright energy. Annie is super easy to talk to and I’ve connected with her very easy! I highly recommend her and look forward to working with her longer!!

She is amazing, calm, understanding and helps me navigate well through my personal challenges.

Annie has helped me cope with my most painful grief that I have been unable to speak to anyone else about. She is very caring and offers ways to help breathe through the pain and find the light.

She listens well. Helps me with homework (sheets). She gets me and she prepares me for what I will face and repairs what I have faced

easy to talk to, very comfortable manner about her

Annie is open, compassionate, and so easy to open up to! I’ve felt comfortable with her since the first session and feel so much better already!

She’s honest, kind, and helpful. She’s really helped me. 10/10 I would recommend her to anyone I know.

Very attentive and I feel comfortable expressing all my concerns. The one time I wanted to talk to her but did not have a schedule appointment she was able to have an emergency slot for me

Annie has been so understanding and kind and helpful so far. I greatly appreciate her help.

I have enjoyed using BetterHelp so far. Annie is very kind, and helpful.

Very easy to work with.

Annie and I have only had two video calls, and 2 weeks of occasional messaging back and forth. So far she has shown professionalism, connection and great listening skills! I am looking forward to see what kind of progress we will make over the next couple of weeks !

I’ve only had a few session now, but I really feel heard and supported. She goes out of her way to make sure I’m okay. She’s super encouraging. I’m excited and ready to start tackling the harder stuff.

Annie has been super helpful! She’s given me a bunch of resources and insight on issues in my life. I always really appreciate her advice.

Thank you Annie for everything! You have been incredibly helpful!

Annie is a fantastic counselor. She works effectively and compassionately, which is all I could ever ask for! She’s such a joy to talk to and I find myself looking forward to sessions like never before.

Annie is good so far. I’ve only talked with her for two weeks but she helps me come to realizations about myself and my thoughts which is helpful and the whole reason for therapy
