About Ann

Ann Newman is a licensed clinical social worker based in Colorado who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and trauma. She uses straightforward talk and practical steps so families and individuals can start making small changes right away. Ann emphasizes respect and warmth in sessions and aims to create a steady space for problem solving.

She brings 13 years of clinical experience to sessions. That experience includes addressing grief, addiction, relationship concerns, self-esteem, and life transitions.

Background and approach

She also helps people coping with chronic illness, caregiving burden, job stress, and compassion fatigue. Ann blends clear, skills-based work with a client-centered attitude. She teaches tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to spot and shift unhelpful thinking.

She also draws on acceptance and commitment ideas to help people hold hard feelings while moving toward valued goals. Attachment-based ideas inform how she looks at relationship patterns and emotional safety. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are used when people need emotion regulation, distress tolerance, or better interpersonal effectiveness.

Sessions focus on what the person wants to change and practical steps to get there. Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. Sessions are an opportunity to practice new habits, rehearse conversations, and plan manageable steps.

Ann works in English and provides care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and motivation struggles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going and teaches concrete skills to change them, which helps with anxiety, low mood, and sleep issues. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people create healthier connection and emotion regulation in close relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will review your concerns, goals, and preferences and collaborate with you to decide which methods to use. That means trying practical tools first, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together as progress or new needs emerge.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and full sessions. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging make it simpler to brief-check progress, get coping ideas between sessions, or fit therapy into a busy day. These options make it easier to maintain continuity, practice skills between meetings, and get support from licensed professionals without rearranging your whole schedule.
