About Anne
Anne Ethier is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 20 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship strain, trauma and intimacy-related concerns. Anne also lists work around life purpose among her areas of focus.
Anne draws on decades in the health and wellness field to shape sessions that attend to both thoughts and bodily experience. She uses somatic awareness and elements of Hakomi therapy to notice present-moment sensations and how they connect to patterns in behavior and feeling. This approach aims to help people recognize what drives their reactions and to try different responses in the moment.
Her practical work often includes addressing attachment issues, codependency, communication problems, control issues, and body image concerns. She also supports people coping with drug and alcohol addiction, eating and food-related issues, and post-traumatic stress. Relationship-focused sessions center on improving trust and communication between partners rather than declaring quick fixes.
Anne works with pregnancy and childbirth related concerns and women's issues, and she helps people process guilt, shame, forgiveness, and family tensions. The therapy space is meant for steady exploration of patterns and choices, not instant solutions.

How Anne brings therapeutic approaches into online work
Anne uses somatic awareness to pay attention to bodily sensations as clues about emotional patterns; this helps people notice how their body reacts to stress, anxiety, or relationship triggers and then practice different responses. She also draws on Hakomi-informed practices that focus on present-moment experience and gentle inquiry to uncover underlying beliefs and habits that keep old patterns in place.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will work with each person to identify goals, try methods that fit their preferences, and adjust the work based on what helps most. The therapist and client decide together whether somatic noticing, Hakomi-informed exercises, or more cognitive approaches are the best next step.
Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy day and reducing travel time so sessions can be easier to attend. If you are unsure about specific session formats, confirm current options before booking so you know what will work for scheduling and technology needs. Therapists and licensed professionals often find online sessions useful for brief check-ins, deeper exploratory work, or continuing therapy when in-person visits are difficult to arrange.
