About Ann

Ann Bevan is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Louisiana. She brings six years of therapy experience and a long history in social work to conversations about grief, stress, and major life changes. Ann aims to make the first steps toward help feel straightforward and respectful.

She listens with patience and without judgment, giving people room to say what matters most. Sessions focus on understanding what is happening now and how past patterns continue to affect daily life. Ann uses clear, practical language and works at a pace that suits each person.

Her background includes supporting people through loss, medical challenges, anxiety, and depression. Ann also addresses concerns such as addiction, compassion fatigue, and intimacy-related issues. She pays attention to how prejudice or discrimination can shape a person’s worries.

Clinically, Ann draws on several approaches to guide her work. She uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at relational patterns, Client-Centered methods to keep the conversation grounded in the client’s priorities, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to identify thoughts and actions that affect mood and behavior. She also weaves in mindfulness and Jungian perspectives when helpful.

Ann notes experience with hospice and end-of-life counseling and with HIV/AIDS related concerns. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not work with international clients. If someone is ready to begin, the process starts with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling through the site.

Approaches for online grief and life-change work

Ann integrates Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in ways that fit each person. Attachment-Based work looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and trust, which can be useful for relationship stress and grief. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the focus on the person’s priorities and experience, giving them space to lead the conversation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and supports practical steps to shift mood and coping.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through your goals and try methods that match your needs. If an approach isn’t working, she will adjust the plan so work feels relevant and doable.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time, and check in during a lunch break or between appointments. It can also allow for shorter or more frequent check-ins when that helps with managing grief, anxiety, or stress.
