About Annaliese

She listens closely, reflects what she hears, and works with clients to set small, achievable goals.
Background and approach
This keeps progress manageable and avoids overwhelming next steps. She blends a few different approaches to match each person's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps spot and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior.
Mindfulness practices teach simple ways to ground attention and reduce reactivity. Client-centered work keeps the client's perspective at the heart of the process. Over seven years of clinical work, she has supported people facing panic attacks, mood problems, communication breakdowns, and the fallout from separation or grief.
She also helps with money stress, caregiver strain, and struggles around body image and shame. Sessions are aimed at building practical coping tools and clearer thinking. Annaliese encourages experimentation - try something for a few weeks, then check how it feels.
People leave with concrete strategies they can use between sessions.
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Client-centered work puts the client's needs and perspective first and focuses on listening, empathy, and collaboration to help people clarify goals and next steps. This is useful for issues like loneliness, communication problems, and life purpose concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches people to notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors to change how they feel. It works well for anxiety, panic attacks, mood challenges, and stress by giving clear, short exercises to practice between sessions.
Mindfulness Therapy offers simple practices for grounding attention and reducing reactivity. Short guided exercises and breath-based techniques can help with impulsivity, rumination, and emotional overwhelm.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to test methods, adjust strategies, and decide what feels most helpful based on the person's goals and experiences.
Online formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be a simpler check-in. Live chat and text let people send quick updates, ask short questions, or do a brief check-in between longer sessions. These options give flexibility for different schedules and communication preferences, while keeping the focus on practical progress and usable skills.
