About Ann
Ann Wheeler is a Tennessee-licensed professional counselor with the LPC-MHSP credential and 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, career uncertainty, depression, and life changes. Ann also addresses related problems like communication difficulties, isolation and loneliness, guilt, and questions about life purpose.
Ann uses straightforward conversation to help people notice what is getting in the way of daily functioning and decisions. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking about goals. She adjusts the pace and topics to what the client brings, rather than following a fixed script.
In work around career and life transitions she helps people sort values, priorities, and the next steps. For mood and anxiety concerns she emphasizes coping strategies people can try between sessions. When clients struggle with shame, impulsivity, or workplace stress, she helps them examine patterns and experiment with different responses.
Ann favors clear, respectful dialogue and concrete planning. She invites clients to try changes in small, manageable ways and to notice what helps. Her approach aims to make everyday decisions feel easier and less overwhelming.
For someone feeling stuck after a job change, a relationship shift, or a health challenge, Ann offers focused support to explore purpose and direction without promising a single solution. To begin, follow the site steps to complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session.
How Ann applies evidence-based techniques online
Ann works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and behavioral change. One common approach she uses emphasizes identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-world experiments to reduce anxiety and low mood. This helps people notice which beliefs drive avoidance or harsh self-judgment and try alternative ways of thinking in day-to-day life.A second approach centers on building concrete coping strategies. That can include short behavioral tasks, breathing or grounding practices, and breaking larger goals into small steps. These techniques aim to make stress and impulsive reactions easier to manage between sessions.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to choose approaches that match their needs, goals, and comfort level, and she adjusts the plan as progress is seen or new concerns arise.
The practical benefits of meeting online include fitting therapy into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Check the platform information before booking to confirm which session formats she currently offers. Online sessions can make it easier to keep regular appointments, try short check-ins, and practice coping strategies during a normal day.
