About Ann
Ann Adams is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor practicing in Florida. She focuses on common concerns that parents bring up, including stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, self-esteem, mood changes, and relationship strain. Ann also helps with career stress, addictions, and life transitions.
Ann aims for a warm, respectful tone in sessions. She uses clear feedback and practical goals so conversations feel focused from the start. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person's needs.
Background and approach
She often mixes straightforward strategies with reflective conversation to help people move forward. Her work draws on client-centered ideas and cognitive behavioral tools. That means she listens first, then helps people notice patterns of thought and behavior they want to change.
She also brings mindfulness practices and brief solution-focused steps into the room to build momentum and skills. Ann emphasizes goal setting early in the process. Many people find this helpful when they want measurable shifts in daily life, parenting routines, or mood.
She encourages small, doable steps and checks progress along the way. With three years as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Ann combines coaching-style guidance with therapy techniques. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging to fit busy schedules.
Sessions are offered in English and she practices from Florida as an FL LMHC and RI LMHC.

Practical approaches for online parenting support
Ann blends client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people make tangible changes. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening with respect and helping people find their own answers, which is useful when parents want a nonjudgmental space to sort through choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches concrete skills to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and change unhelpful routines.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try strategies, and adjust the plan based on what works. That way treatment stays practical and tied to the client’s priorities rather than fixed from the start.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit varied schedules. Video is helpful for full conversations and visual cues, phone works when bandwidth is limited, live chat allows quicker check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reminders or brief coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare, and daily life while focusing on skills and goals.
