About Ann
Ann Conrad is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 18 years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical skills that help people manage stress, anger, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. Ann uses clear, goal-oriented work to help clients move forward with more confidence.
She combines several therapy approaches to match each person's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. Attachment-Based and Client-Centered ideas guide conversations about how relationships shape feelings and choices.
Background and approach
Ann has worked in many settings and has treated a wide range of concerns. These include trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, parenting strain, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and life changes like divorce or blended-family issues. She also addresses adoption and foster care topics, communication and control problems, and first responder stress.
Sessions aim to teach concrete tools rather than create long-term dependence on therapy. Ann focuses on measurable steps, problem-solving, and building coping skills so clients can return to daily life with greater ease. She emphasizes tailoring techniques to what actually helps each person.
People who seek her help often want straightforward plans and steady support while they work through painful experiences or build new habits. Ann invites clients who are ready to try practical changes and who want a collaborative, down-to-earth approach to therapy.

Approach-driven online therapy that focuses on practical change
Ann blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in work that aims for clear, usable change. CBT helps identify thought patterns and test new behaviors, which can ease anxiety, anger, and depression. Client-Centered Therapy puts the person's experience and goals at the center, creating room to explore feelings about relationships and family life.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to decide which methods fit best based on goals, preferences, and how the client responds. This is a collaborative process that can shift as progress is made.
Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit real sessions into a busy life. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins around work or school, and remove the need to arrange childcare or long commutes. For people who prefer different paces, sessions can emphasize skill practice, step-by-step problem solving, or deeper processing depending on goals and time available.
