About Annis
Annis Reyes Frias is a licensed clinical social worker with 13 years of experience. She helps people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma and low self-esteem. She also supports those facing big life changes and challenges with communication, separation, life purpose, and self-love.
She offers a warm, straightforward style in sessions. Conversations focus on what matters now and on practical steps to feel better. She listens closely and helps people name the thoughts and patterns that get in the way.
How Annis works
Her work includes methods drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, along with client-centered listening, EMDR, and hypnotherapy when helpful. These approaches are used to reduce anxious thinking, process hard memories, and build new ways of responding to stress. Sessions move at a pace the person is comfortable with.
Some meetings focus on short-term coping skills. Others explore deeper themes like trauma, meaning, and self-worth. Exercises, homework, and everyday tools are offered so progress continues between sessions.
She provides services in Arizona and communicates in English and Spanish. The overall aim is clearer thinking, steadier mood, and stronger communication skills so people can take the next step in their lives.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches you can access online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and then take actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and for making changes when life feels uncertain. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like worry and low mood. EMDR helps process traumatic memories by pairing focused attention with therapist-guided protocols to lower the intensity of painful recollections.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and will recommend one or a mix of methods. That collaborative process means techniques are chosen to match what the person wants to change and how they prefer to work.
Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can fit into a quick break or when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can be helpful for shorter check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule appointments from different locations and to keep therapy consistent with everyday life.
