About Anne

Anne Grenchus is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in Vermont with six years of experience. She holds an LCSW in New York and an LICSW in Vermont. She helps people managing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, life changes, and compassion fatigue.

She teaches master's level grief and loss classes at the University at Albany. She also leads continuing education workshops for professionals. That work keeps her connected to current research on what helps with anxiety, panic, grief, caregiver burnout, and complex post-traumatic stress.

In sessions she talks straightforwardly about what is happening and what people can try next. She explains techniques backed by research and practices them together in session. She helps people notice patterns like people-pleasing or losing themselves when caring for others.

Anne draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address panic attacks, intense grief, and the emotional strain of caregiving. She helps people build clearer boundaries, manage panic symptoms, and process traumatic memories at a pace they can handle. Practical skills and short-term strategies are mixed with longer work when needed.

People who come for help often want relief from constant anxiety, less overwhelm around caregiving, or a clearer sense of purpose after loss. She encourages small, concrete steps that fit into busy lives. To begin, people use the site process to answer a short questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

Approaches used in online sessions and how they help

Anne draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and processing difficult experiences. One approach emphasizes skill-building for anxiety and panic - teaching breathing, grounding, and short behavioral practices to reduce immediate symptoms and build confidence in stressful moments. Another approach centers on grief and loss work taught at the graduate level - it helps people make sense of losses, process strong emotions, and find manageable next steps after change. A third focus addresses caregiver stress and compassion fatigue with strategies to recognize exhaustion and introduce small routine changes that reduce burnout.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Anne collaborates with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals and comfort level. That means trying options in session, checking how they feel, and adjusting the plan together rather than committing to a single method up front.

Confirm the therapist's current session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or medical appointments because it removes travel time and can allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let someone use less bandwidth by matching on audio rather than video when that helps. Licensed professionals often find this flexibility helps people maintain consistent progress while juggling daily responsibilities.
