Getting to know Ann Applebee

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have been licensed since 2004 and love what I do. I've had the privilege of serving in many different roles, which has broadened my scope and social work practice. Life can be hard and messy, and I am here to help people navigate life's challenges with honesty and humor. My approach I am a strengths-based, client-centered therapist who believes that everyone can make positive change and that we all need extra support sometimes. Trust, connection, and honesty make the therapeutic relationship work. There isn't one treatment modality that works for everyone, and I let the client guide treatment. I use a systems approach, examining all different systems in which we function (i.e., family, community, educational, employment) while pulling in cultural and environmental considerations as well. I am trauma-informed and believe the challenges we face in life do not have to define us! My focus I have a lot of experience working with clients who experience depression, anxiety, grief, self-esteem issues, trauma, or other life stressors. I've worked with couples who have navigated infidelity or other major challenges, and I have also done a lot of work with active-duty military and their spouses and families. My communication style Being an active listener is something I excel at while creating a safe, supportive place for people to share and discover. I help people uncover their feelings, identify their options, find their strengths, and learn to make their best choices while holding them accountable and sometimes challenging their thoughts and beliefs. I don't typically give advice but will work with the client to come up with the best solution for them while ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, seen, and heard. My journey to mental healthcare I knew from a young age that I would do something in the helping field.
