About Anne
Anne York is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New York. She offers straightforward, practical help for people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or ready to make a change. Her style is warm and nonjudgmental and she focuses on what matters most to each person.
She draws on five years of direct clinical experience alongside a longer history managing nonprofit programs. That background gave her experience supporting people affected by mental health challenges, substance use, homelessness, and life transitions.
Background and approach
She emphasizes collaborative goal setting so clients stay in charge of their progress. In sessions she leans on client-centered work and solution-focused methods. That means listening closely, reflecting what matters to you, and identifying small, doable steps toward change.
She also uses motivational interviewing to help people find internal reasons to act and trauma-focused approaches when past harm affects current wellbeing. Parents who are juggling stress, relationships, and big life changes will find practical tools for coping and clearer plans to move forward. She helps with worries like anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, addiction, bipolar symptoms, and the effects of trauma.
Expect a conversational, goal-oriented pace. Sessions prioritize what you want to address first and then experiment with changes that fit your life. Anne supports people who want to try different ways of managing stress and to build habits that last.

How her approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person's experience and priorities. Online sessions using this approach begin with open listening and reflection so the therapist can learn what matters most, then build plans that fit your daily life.Motivational interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change. In remote sessions this looks like guided conversations that explore ambivalence and strengthen commitment to small, realistic steps toward goals like reducing substance use or improving mood.
Solution-focused therapy zeroes in on specific goals and practical strategies. Online work often uses short, goal-oriented check-ins and homework between sessions to test what helps and refine next steps.
Choosing an approach happens together. The therapist will talk with you about your needs, goals, and preferences and recommend one or a mix of methods. That plan can shift as you try techniques and see what works best for you.
Online sessions are offered by a licensed professional through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful when visual cues help the conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, messaging is good for quick check-ins, and chat or brief texts can fit a short break during a busy day. These options make scheduling more flexible and help people keep therapy as part of their routine.
