About Anne
Anne Fox is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps people manage stress, anxiety, family conflict, trauma and parenting challenges. She works with adults looking for practical ways to handle anger, relationship strain, and the emotional fallout from difficult life events. Her first aim is to make starting therapy feel straightforward and manageable for a worried parent or caregiver.
With 20 years of experience and a California LMFT credential, she shapes sessions around each person's goals. She listens first, then suggests ways to change what isn't working. Conversations are respectful and direct, with an emphasis on realistic steps clients can use between sessions.
Her approach draws on attachment ideas to look at relationship patterns and on cognitive behavioral techniques to shift thoughts and behaviors that fuel anxiety. She also uses client-centered conversation to keep the work focused on what matters most to the person in the room. Anne integrates psychodynamic perspectives and parts work when deeper patterns from the past are affecting present life.
Anne has additional focus on adoption and foster care topics, caregiver stress, blended family issues, and several mood and personality concerns. She tailors a treatment plan to the individual's needs rather than following a one-size-fits-all method. This helps clients move from feeling stuck to having clearer options.
Beginning therapy with Anne involves small, concrete steps and practical homework when useful. She aims for a calm, steady process so people can tackle the problems they brought in and see gradual change over time.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape reactions in close relationships. It can help people understand patterns of distance or clinginess and find new ways to connect with others. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It is useful for anxiety, panic, and managing unhelpful thinking with clear, practical techniques. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the client's perspective, using empathic listening to help people feel heard and decide what changes matter most.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Anne will help clients clarify goals and test what methods fit best. She adapts the plan based on your needs, preferences, and what proves most helpful in early sessions.
Confirm current session options before booking to learn which formats are offered. Online work can make scheduling easier and reduce travel time so therapy fits into a busy week. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to include sessions around caregiving or work breaks. Talk with the therapist during the matching process to decide how to shape sessions so they fit your life.
