About Ann
Ann Morris is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with 30 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, LGBTQ+ related issues, trauma and abuse, and depression. Her work includes attention to codependency and relationship-related struggles such as abandonment, attachment, and communication problems.
Ann uses straightforward conversation to identify what is causing distress. She listens for patterns that keep problems repeating, like people-pleasing or over-responsibility for others. Together with each person she maps practical steps to reduce overwhelming feelings and regain more control over daily choices.
Her approach draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address symptoms and behavior patterns. Sessions focus on building skills for setting boundaries, managing cravings or urges, and coping with intrusive memories or intense moods. She also helps people reflect on how past relationships shape current reactions.
Ann has worked in a range of clinical settings over three decades, giving her exposure to diverse problems and life stages. She describes treatment planning as a collaborative process that begins with a clear assessment and agreed goals. People can expect direct feedback, concrete strategies to try between sessions, and ongoing review of progress.
Practical concerns such as caregiver stress, body image, divorce, and blended family adjustments are part of her experience. She practices in Florida and offers services in English. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step are used to set the first session.
How sessions work
How evidence-based work maps to online sessions
Ann uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. Cognitive approaches help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; these methods are useful for anxiety, depression, and codependent behaviors by teaching new ways to respond to triggers. Trauma-focused techniques focus on managing intrusive memories and strong emotional reactions through grounding, pacing, and skill building so day-to-day functioning improves.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist and client review goals, symptoms, and preferences and then try approaches that fit those needs. Progress is checked regularly and methods are adjusted when something is not helping as expected.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, remove travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when time is tight. Phone sessions can be useful when lower bandwidth or not being on camera is preferable. Discussing how to structure appointments happens during the intake so sessions align with everyday life and goals.
