Annette Kauffroth, LCSW

Annette Kauffroth is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Texas with 14 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and abuse, depression, and coping with life changes. She also addresses addictions, grief, intimacy-related issues, parenting concerns, self-esteem, career questions, and mood disorders.

Annette began her career as an engineer and later moved into social work. She uses practical tools alongside listening to what matters most to each person. Sessions emphasize balancing acceptance with intentional change and looking at everyday patterns that get in the way.

Her work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and client-centered methods. That means she often helps people notice thoughts and behaviors, practice new skills, and clarify personal values. She also pays attention to attachment and communication patterns that affect relationships.

In session she uses straightforward, skills-oriented exercises such as mindfulness practices, behavior experiments, and communication strategies. She also works with underlying themes like guilt, shame, and life purpose when those issues come up. Annette integrates practical steps with reflection so people can try small changes between sessions.

She offers help for a wide range of concerns including bipolar and post-traumatic stress. Sessions are conducted in English, and she accepts international clients. Before booking, confirm current session options and logistics to make sure they fit your situation.
