About Anne

Anne Petti is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New York. She uses a person-centered approach to help people address stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, sleep problems, and mood challenges. Her style is straightforward and practical, focused on what each person needs right now.

With seven years of clinical experience, Anne has worked with people facing substance use issues, co-occurring mood disorders, trauma, and personality-related struggles. She helps clients with grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, self-harm thoughts, and issues like codependency and impulsivity. Sleep and eating difficulties are among the everyday concerns she addresses in sessions.

Anne blends client-centered care with cognitive behavioral strategies and dialectical behavior techniques. She also draws on mindfulness and motivational interviewing to support change. In session she aims to identify small, manageable steps that fit into a person’s daily life.

Her approach emphasizes collaboration and practical coaching. She works with people to set clear goals and test what helps, then adjusts the plan as needed. The tone is direct but compassionate, with an emphasis on building coping skills and improving daily routines.

People who want a mix of supportive listening and hands-on tools may find this approach helpful. To begin, prospective clients follow the site’s Start Therapy flow to complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first appointment based on the therapist’s availability.

How Anne’s approaches translate to online care

Anne often combines client-centered work with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) techniques. Client-centered work focuses on understanding each person’s priorities and meeting them where they are, which helps shape goals around sleep, stress, or relationship concerns. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, behaviors, and feelings and helps people test new habits that can improve sleep and daily routines. DBT offers practical skills for managing strong emotions, reducing impulsive behaviors, and improving distress tolerance.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and will adjust the plan as progress is made. That means strategies can shift over time, for example prioritizing sleep hygiene first and then adding emotion-regulation skills.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people value online therapy because it can fit more easily into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also makes it easier to practice skills between appointments in real-life settings. Licensed professionals guide the collaborative process and help translate therapeutic tools into everyday routines that support better sleep and coping.
