About Ann
Ann Millet is a licensed clinical social worker in New York with 32 years of professional experience. She works with people who face stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and the challenges that come with life changes. Ann also focuses on caregiver stress, communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, self-love, and social anxiety and phobia.
Ann uses straightforward, practical conversation to help people sort out what feels most urgent. She treats the person as the expert in their own life and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions are aimed at helping people notice what gets in the way and try different ways of responding.
Her approach is goal-oriented and hands-on. She helps clients set clear steps they can try between sessions. Progress is tracked in small, practical ways so people can see what changes help in daily life.
Ann draws on decades of experience to adapt to different concerns. She listens for patterns in stress and avoidance and works with clients to practice new skills. The work is collaborative: she offers suggestions, feedback, and simple exercises to test out between meetings.
People seek her out when they want direct support for anxiety, relationship communication, or the strain of caregiving. She encourages realistic expectations and steady steps rather than quick fixes.

How therapeutic approaches and online sessions fit together
Ann uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that emphasize practical skills and problem solving. One common strand is skill-building work that teaches specific ways to manage anxiety and stress, such as breathing, pacing exposure to feared situations, or trying different behavioral responses to reduce avoidance. These tools are useful for social anxiety and phobic reactions because they aim at small, repeatable steps rather than large leaps.Another approach focuses on noticing patterns in mood and behavior. This involves tracking situations that trigger low mood or shame and testing new responses. It helps people understand which habits keep problems going and which small changes produce relief over time.
Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that match the person's goals, preferences, and daily life. That means trying approaches, checking how they feel, and adjusting as needed rather than committing to one method from the start.
Confirm the session formats before booking since the biography does not specify them. In general, online sessions can help fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce commute time, and make regular meetings easier to keep. Some formats also make shorter check-ins or phone-based conversations possible when that suits someone's routine. Ask about specific options during the sign-up process so the chosen format matches practical needs.
