More about Annamay
- 3 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
I earned my Master of Science degree in professional clinical mental health counseling at University of WI-Oshkosh. Prior to having my own private practice, I worked as a therapist, dual-diagnosis therapist, and crisis worker serving diverse populations of all ages and with a wide variety of concerns. I have specialized training in DBT, CBT, EMDR, hypnotherapy, IFS, ACT, ADHD, anxiety, Christian life coaching, and have worked as a certified integrative health coach. I have specialized in somatic healing techniques and neuroscience as well. I utilize a strength-based, compassion-led, eclectic mix of therapies based on client needs. I believe in educating clients to help them gain knowledge and feel empowered to make changes and to grow and in treating the whole person – mind, heart, body, and spirit.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
