About Ann

Ann Keith is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 14 years of experience in clinical practice. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, and life changes. Ann also supports those coping with trauma, addiction, anger, self-esteem struggles, and bipolar-related challenges.

Ann uses a mix of practical talk and structured methods in sessions. She draws on cognitive behavioral strategies to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and build small, sustainable actions toward them.

Attachment-based ideas inform how she looks at relationship patterns and communication problems. Emotionally-Focused Therapy is part of her approach when people want to address strong emotions and connection difficulties. Client-centered principles guide the pace and direction of work, keeping the person’s goals central.

Ann has experience across a wide range of life stressors, including abandonment issues, caregiver stress, family of origin concerns, divorce and separation, and end-of-life matters. She works with people dealing with isolation, body image concerns, midlife transitions, and finding life purpose.

She holds LCSW credentials in Texas and New Mexico and conducts work from New Mexico. Sessions are offered in English, and she is open to working with international clients. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the therapist’s online options.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people name what matters to them and take small actions toward those values despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It is often used for anxiety, rumination, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing patterns of behavior with practical exercises and skill practice. It is commonly used when anxiety, depression, or specific fears interfere with daily life. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and communication, which can be useful for relationship strain and repeated interpersonal difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ann will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That process can include trying an approach for a few sessions and adjusting based on what is helpful.

Confirm current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into busy schedules, shorten check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. They also let people choose quieter surroundings, turn off video if it feels easier, or schedule brief sessions around work or caregiving. The practical aim is to help therapeutic work fit into everyday life while the therapist and client try approaches that suit the person’s needs.
