About Anne

Anne Keyes is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Massachusetts with three years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, addictions, trauma and abuse, and issues with self-esteem. Sessions focus on practical steps people can take to manage difficult feelings and reactions.

Before holding the LMFT, Anne spent time working as a mental health clinician in settings that involved addiction and trauma care. That background informs how she talks about triggers and patterns. She relies on clear, person-focused conversation rather than technical jargon.

Her style centers on listening and on helping people notice what keeps a problem going. She uses client-centered methods to follow what matters most to each person. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and change thought and behavior patterns that feed anger and depression.

Motivational Interviewing is used when someone is weighing change, for example around substance use. Trauma-focused work targets the impact of past harm so present reactions become easier to understand and manage. In sessions Anne breaks steps down into small, doable practices.

People meet practical goals like lowering everyday irritability, handling workplace frustration, and reducing arguments at home. The approach is straightforward: identify what triggers strong reactions, try small behavioral shifts, and track what helps. That lets people build better habits over time.

How sessions work

Approaches used in online sessions and what they do

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what a person says so they can notice patterns and decide what matters most. It helps when someone needs a clear, steady conversation to sort feelings and priorities.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going. In short exercises people learn to spot automatic thoughts, try different actions, and see what changes in daily life. This is often used for anxiety, anger, and low mood.

Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels unsure about making a change, such as reducing substance use. It uses guided questions to clarify reasons for change and to build small first steps.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then suggest methods to try. That plan can change as the work progresses so methods match what actually helps.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Generally, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove time spent traveling. Some approaches translate well to brief, focused sessions while others use longer visits for skills practice, and the therapist will discuss what schedule suits a client's routine.
