About Ana
Ana Rincon is a California-licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 17 years of professional experience. She works with adults who are coping with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and big life changes. She also focuses on caregiver stress, isolation and loneliness, and questions about life purpose.
Her sessions are practical and conversation-based. She uses clear, goal-focused steps drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice patterns of thought and behavior that keep them stuck. Conversations often include small experiments and new ways of thinking that can be practiced between sessions.
Clients can expect straightforward talk about what feels most pressing. Ana listens for what’s getting in the way of daily functioning and then suggests concrete tools to try. She balances short-term coping strategies with work on longer-term patterns that matter to confidence and motivation.
Over 17 years she has worked in settings that shaped an outcome-oriented style. That experience informs how she helps people manage grief, re-establish routines, and make decisions after big life transitions. Her focus is on practical steps that fit into everyday life.
To start, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies by location. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are not accepted.
How CBT-based care translates to online sessions
Ana uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a practical way to change thoughts and behaviors that contribute to stress, anxiety, and low mood. CBT sessions focus on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, testing new responses, and practicing small behavioral experiments to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.Finding the best approach is part of the work. Ana will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their concerns, goals, and daily routine. Together they review what helps and adjust the plan as needed rather than committing to one method from the start.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a work break, or avoiding the need to be on camera when that feels difficult. These practical benefits help people keep continuity with their care while they try new skills.
