About Anne
Anne "Annie" Bateman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in North Carolina with 10 years of professional experience. She works with adults who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and major life changes. Annie also supports people dealing with codependency, caregiver stress, communication problems, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.
Annie keeps sessions direct and practical. She listens to what is happening now and helps people name patterns that cause pain or burnout. Conversations focus on what someone can try between sessions and small changes that fit into everyday life. She places attention on coping skills for panic, trauma responses, and strong emotions.
Her approach centers on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that address reactions to stress and trauma. Rather than long explanations, Annie works with clear steps and shared goals. She helps people practice setting boundaries, calming strategies, and ways to rebuild a sense of self when relationships or responsibilities have overtaken personal needs.
Annie has experience supporting people after disasters and for first responder stress. She also addresses domestic violence impacts and feelings of guilt and shame that follow painful events. Her work includes helping clients explore self-harm urges and develop safer coping alternatives.
Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients. The subscription used for sessions can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How evidence-based techniques translate to online work
Two evidence-based approaches Annie uses are trauma-focused techniques and skills-based interventions. Trauma-focused work helps people process memories and reduce the hold of past events, while skills-based work teaches concrete ways to manage panic, anxiety, and overwhelming emotions. Each approach focuses on practical steps that can be practiced between meetings.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Annie reviews symptoms, goals, and what has or hasn't helped before, and then suggests methods to try. She checks in with clients about what feels useful and adjusts the plan as needed so the work stays manageable and relevant to daily life.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions useful because they fit more easily into work breaks, reduce travel time, or allow for shorter check-ins when energy is limited. Licensed professionals can also use remote meetings to maintain continuity during life changes. Ask about the specific format offered when you complete the matching questionnaire so you can pick what fits your routine.
