About Ann
Ann Millet is a New York LCSW-R with 32 years of professional experience. She works with adults who are carrying stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and the strains of life change. Ann also addresses caregiver stress, communication problems, social anxiety, isolation, life purpose, self-love, and feelings of guilt and shame.
She treats people as the experts on their own lives. In sessions she listens for what matters most and helps people notice strengths they already have. Conversations focus on practical steps someone can try between meetings. The tone is direct and straightforward, aimed at making each session useful from the first visit.
Her approach values measurable progress. She helps clients set clear goals and track how small changes affect mood and daily functioning. That can mean working on routines, practicing new communication habits, or testing out short experiments to reduce avoidance and worry.
Ann encourages people to name and understand their guilt or shame so these feelings lose some of their power. She helps clients separate past actions from present identity and practice more constructive self-talk. This work is done at a pace the person finds manageable.
Practical matters are part of her practice. Sessions follow a plan and are adjusted as needs shift. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session so work can start from a clear place.
Evidence-based approaches and working online
Ann uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on concrete changes in thinking and behavior. One commonly used approach helps people identify and test unhelpful thoughts by looking for evidence and trying small behavioral experiments to reduce avoidance and worry. This method can be useful for anxiety, low self-esteem, and rumination.Another approach emphasizes building new routines and skills in daily life. That work targets mood and motivation by breaking tasks into smaller steps, practicing new communication habits, and tracking progress week to week. It is practical and aimed at steady improvement rather than quick fixes.
Finding the right combination of techniques is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. Treatment plans are reviewed and adjusted as progress is observed.
