About Ann
Ann Keith is a licensed clinical social worker with 14 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship concerns. She practices in New Mexico and offers care in English. Ann uses straightforward, compassionate approaches to help people find practical ways to feel steadier in day-to-day life.
Her work often focuses on common life challenges like coping with change, recovering from loss, and dealing with anger or substance use.
How Ann works
She also addresses issues tied to family of origin, communication problems, abandonment, and self-esteem. Ann pays attention to medical and end-of-life concerns such as hospice and caregiving stress. In sessions she blends methods that help people change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, build stronger emotional bonds, and notice what matters most in life.
That mix makes room for both skills practice and deeper emotional work. She aims to make therapy concrete and relevant to everyday routines. Clients can expect a collaborative pace where goals are set together and adapted as needed.
Ann helps people develop coping plans, communication tools, and steps to manage cravings or mood swings. She also supports those facing midlife questions, life purpose concerns, and the isolation that can follow major life events. Ann holds LCSW credentials in Texas and New Mexico.
She works with people dealing with trauma and abuse, bipolar concerns, body-image struggles, and adjustment around aging. Sessions are offered via multiple online formats to fit different needs and schedules.

Online support options
How Ann’s approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice what they value and take small actions toward it even when feelings are difficult. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and when life changes feel overwhelming. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments to reduce anxiety and improve mood. It works well for stress, panic, and behavior changes.Finding the best approach is part of the work. Ann will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and daily life, then collaborate on which methods to use. She adjusts techniques over time so sessions stay useful and practical for the client's situation.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging support quick check-ins, shorter updates, or ongoing encouragement between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while maintaining consistent contact with a licensed professional.
