About Annie
Annie Bennett is an Ohio licensed independent social worker (LISW) with 25 years of clinical experience. She has focused much of her career on addiction work with women and on the emotional and relationship issues that often come with substance use and recovery.
She earned a master's degree from the University of Kentucky and completed two years of conjoint marital and family therapy training. For a decade she worked in a long-term residential treatment program that allowed women to bring children under 12. That time shaped her experience in addiction, grief, trauma, and caregiving stress.
Her style blends cognitive behavioral, client-centered, and solution-focused work. Sessions are practical and straightforward. She helps people name problems, try new behaviors, and notice what changes when they use them.
Annie also draws on attachment-based ideas when relationships and codependency patterns come up. She helps people look at how early bonds show up now and what small shifts might reduce reactivity and people-pleasing behaviors.
She offers 45-minute online sessions and works part time while maintaining an online schedule. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled through the site.
How sessions work
How Annie uses therapy approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that reflect personal values. It can help people who avoid emotions or who want clearer direction about their priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses small experiments to test new ways of responding. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood, and unhelpful patterns like people-pleasing.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk with clients about goals and preferences and mix approaches as needed. That collaborative process helps shape what is tried session to session rather than sticking to a single method.
Her online practice offers 45-minute sessions as reported in her background; please confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so more focus goes to the work. If a person prefers to move between brief practical skills and deeper relational exploration, those options are easy to schedule in an online format.
