About Ann
Ann Voorhees is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with 38 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, addictions, parenting strain, sleep and eating problems, ADHD, and career or life-change struggles.
Her career began after a graduate degree in 1986, first assessing and treating children suspected of sexual abuse. She later worked with adult survivors of abuse and adolescent sex offenders. Much of her professional life also involved psychiatric and human services administration before returning to direct psychotherapy work.
In session she uses a conversational, interactive style. She combines client-centered ideas with cognitive behavioral tools, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and psychodynamic perspectives. She focuses on practical steps people can try between appointments and on understanding patterns that keep problems repeating.
Ann works with adults and mature adults who are coping with low mood, low self-esteem, emotional fatigue, anger, and life transitions. She also addresses caregiver stress, blended family issues, abandonment, codependency, and end-of-life concerns. Her approach avoids labels and treats people with respect and sensitivity.
She offers clinical support aimed at improving day-to-day functioning. Sessions include talk, skill practice, and goal-focused work. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats before booking.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people can clarify their own goals; it helps with low self-esteem, relationship concerns, and general life stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) uses practical exercises to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is often applied to anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating problems. Mindfulness Therapy trains attention and awareness to reduce reactivity and burnout and can support coping with stress and compassion fatigue.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review your situation and goals and suggest methods to try. Decisions about techniques and homework are made collaboratively so each plan fits your needs and schedule.
Confirm the current session formats before booking because the biography does not list them explicitly. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, shorten check-ins on a work break, or avoid travel time. Talk-based methods, skill practice, and brief coaching-style check-ins translate well to remote sessions, and the therapist will discuss which options match your goals when you get started.
