Ann Adams, LMHC

Ann Adams is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and parenting concerns, and those coping with life changes or addiction issues.

Ann uses a straightforward, warm style in sessions. She listens with respect and offers practical feedback. Many clients set at least one goal early and work step-by-step toward it.

Her approach combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with client-centered and mindfulness ideas. She mixes solution-focused techniques and motivational interviewing when a clear next step is needed. Sessions often focus on small, doable actions that build confidence and momentum.

Ann also supports people dealing with career shifts, caregiver strain, blended family challenges, money and financial worries, and midlife transitions. She has experience addressing mood disorders, bipolar conditions, and compassion fatigue alongside relationship and communication problems.

Across work with individuals, Ann emphasizes collaboration. She helps clients notice unhelpful thinking, try new behaviors, and track what works. The process is practical and paced to each person’s needs.

With three years as an LMHC in Florida, Ann blends coaching and counseling skills to help motivated clients reach clear goals. She encourages commitment to the process and partners with people who want measurable change.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Ann uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT sessions often include practical exercises and small homework tasks that fit well with remote work. Client-Centered Therapy is also central to her style - it focuses on listening, empathy, and helping people find their own solutions through supportive conversation.

Choosing the right approach happens together. She will ask about your goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped in the past, then suggest ways of working that match your needs. That collaboration helps tailor whether sessions lean more toward CBT skills, a client-centered conversation, or a mix of strategies.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for busy schedules. Video allows face-to-face conversation and screen sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let clients send updates, ask quick questions, and keep momentum between formal appointments. These options help people fit sessions into work, caregiving, or travel demands.
