About Ann

Ann Newman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Colorado with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, relationship problems, grief, addictions, ADHD, and challenges tied to parenting, career, intimacy, eating and sleeping. Ann also supports those coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, bipolar concerns, and a range of attachment and identity issues.

Ann favors straightforward, practical sessions. She listens to what feels urgent and helps set clear, small goals to reduce overwhelm. Conversations often include behavior-focused exercises, emotion regulation skills, and trying out new ways to handle difficult situations. Sessions are focused on what to try between appointments and what matters most day to day.

Her approach blends several evidence-based methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify patterns that keep problems going. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) offers ways to accept difficult emotions while still moving toward valued actions. Attachment-Based work looks at how early relationships affect current closeness and trust.

Ann draws on client-centered and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) ideas as well, using practical skills for distress tolerance and communication. She pays attention to medical, caregiving, and life stressors that shape someone’s options and energy. Her focus is on usable tools, better communication, and small changes that add up.

Ann practices in Colorado and works in English. To start, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the See online therapy options button. The service uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time, with fees that vary by location.

BHow sessions work

How Ann uses therapy methods online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then identifying small actions that match personal values. ACT can help with anxiety, depression, and motivation when life feels stalled. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions, and uses simple exercises to shift unhelpful patterns. CBT is useful for stress, depression, and many everyday struggles. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current trust and closeness and is useful for relationship and intimacy concerns.

Figuring out which approach fits best is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, daily routines, and what methods feel most useful. Together they will try techniques and adjust the plan based on what helps in real life.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online work can make therapy fit into a busy week by reducing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins or longer focused sessions as needed. It can also make it easier to schedule around work, caregiving, or medical appointments. Practical issues like quieter surroundings or lower bandwidth needs influence which format people prefer, and those details are settled when arranging sessions.
