About Ann

Ann Marie Fenn is a Florida-based licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with twenty years of practice. She focuses on supporting people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, and life changes. She also helps those coping with trauma, depression, and compassion fatigue. Ann Marie approaches work with straightforward support and respect for each person's story.

She believes clients are the experts on their own lives and brings a client-centered approach to sessions. That means conversations start with the person's goals and experiences, and the therapist follows their lead. Sessions aim to build on existing strengths and practical steps that fit daily life.

Her background includes long-term work with issues around pregnancy and childbirth, postpartum concerns, and birth trauma. She has also supported people facing chronic illness, caregiving strain, divorce, and end-of-life matters. Panic disorder and panic attacks are listed among the areas she addresses.

Ann Marie uses simple, person-focused methods rather than technical jargon. She listens, reflects, and helps people try strategies that can reduce immediate distress. The pace and focus are set together so work aligns with each client's needs.

People who choose her can expect calm, direct conversation and help translating insights into actions. The emphasis is on manageable changes that make day-to-day life a little easier. If you want a therapist who centers your experience, she aims to provide steady practical support.

How client-centered work translates to online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening without judgment and following the client's priorities. The therapist gives space for people to tell their story, reflects what she hears, and helps clarify goals. This approach can help when anxiety, panic, or life transitions make decision making harder.

In practice that means sessions aim to build on a person's existing strengths and preferences. The therapist and client set the pace together and try strategies that fit daily routines. For concerns like panic attacks or stress, the work often centers on calming techniques, identifying triggers, and steps to reduce overwhelm in real situations.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with clients about what feels helpful and adjust methods as needed. Goals, comfort with techniques, and personal circumstances guide which strategies get used.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people continue work during moves or schedule changes while keeping therapy tied to everyday life.
