More about Ann
- 9 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
As someone who has been in therapy, and has been a therapist for 9 years, I'm passionate about doing therapy that actually works. Therapy can be a powerful tool, and the right tools can help alleviate painful symptoms like fear, anxiety, shame, and hopelessness, so you can live a beautiful and fulfilling life.
In addition to treating anxiety and depression, I specialize in helping adults navigate challenging relationships in their work and personal life, especially romantic relationships. If you're feeling frustrated, confused, or disconnected, this may be a good fit for you.
My approach is open, genuine, and collaborative. I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a 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.
