About Ann
Ann Bevan is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Louisiana with six years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, and compassion fatigue. Sessions also address issues linked to HIV/AIDS, hospice and end-of-life concerns, paranoia, phobias, postpartum depression, prejudice and discrimination, and process addictions.
She trained at Tulane University, earning a Master’s Degree in Social Work. Her background includes work with people facing medical challenges, loss, and relationship problems. Ann uses several therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, attachment-based methods, client-centered work, Jungian ideas, and mindfulness practices.
In sessions she focuses on noticing thoughts and habits that get in the way. She helps people try different ways of responding to stressful situations. Therapy is practical and conversational, with attention to patterns that show up in relationships and day-to-day coping.
Ann also has experience with end-of-life and hospice counseling and support related to HIV/AIDS. She helps people navigate grief and the emotions that come with serious illness and loss.
Her training includes work in Internal Family Systems over recent years, though the profile lists only the approaches above as primary methods. People interested in parts work may bring that up when they schedule a first meeting.

How her approaches translate to online work
Ann uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thought and behavior that increase stress and anxiety. CBT sessions focus on concrete steps - noticing automatic thoughts, testing them, and practicing alternative responses that fit day-to-day life.She also draws on attachment-based methods to look at how early and current relationship patterns affect feelings and reactions. That work helps people understand why they respond a certain way in relationships and what small changes can reduce reactivity.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. She will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences, adjusting pace and focus as needed. The early sessions usually clarify which methods will be most useful going forward.
Session formats are not listed in the source biography, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - shorter check-ins, avoiding travel time, and using audio if video feels too demanding. Ann’s described approaches translate to exercises and homework that can be practiced between sessions to reinforce new skills and responses.
