About Ann
Ann Weight is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in Utah with 12 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, relationship and parenting concerns, and has a stated focus on guilt and shame among other issues.
Ann uses straightforward, person-focused methods in sessions. She listens without judgment and helps people name what feels heavy. Conversations often include skill practice, short experiments, and checking what matters most to the person in front of her.
Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered work, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused strategies. That means she supports people to notice painful thoughts and feelings, clarify values, and try small changes that fit daily life. Sessions mix reflective listening with practical steps people can use between meetings.
Ann has worked with a wide range of life problems for more than a decade. She stays current with evidence-based counseling models and adapts methods to the situation at hand. She also addresses process and substance addictions and related concerns such as emptiness, life purpose, and midlife questions.
People who bring guilt or shame will find a direct but gentle way of talking. Ann helps people untangle what they regret from what they can influence now. She encourages small, concrete actions alongside reflection, so feelings are not left only to rumination.
How her approaches translate to online work
Ann uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice painful thoughts and decide what matters to them. ACT involves learning to accept uncomfortable feelings while committing to actions that reflect personal values, which can help with guilt, life purpose questions, and anxiety.She also draws on client-centered therapy and mindfulness practices. Client-centered work gives people space to speak and be heard without pressure, while mindfulness offers simple exercises for recognizing thoughts and moods as they arise. These approaches tend to fit well into short skill practices and between-session exercises.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then try methods that match those needs. The process is collaborative, and techniques can be adjusted based on how they land in sessions.

Many people appreciate online sessions because they can fit a meeting into a work break, avoid travel time, or use a shorter check-in when needed. Online work makes it possible to try small behavioral experiments and mindfulness practices within the rhythm of daily life without changing other commitments.
