About Anne
Anne Petti is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New York with seven years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, intimacy issues, and mood challenges. Sessions are offered in English.
She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered and dialectical behavior approaches to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and change routine responses. Anne also draws on mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques to support practical steps. She aims to work with each person’s stated goals, focusing on clear, usable strategies rather than theory alone.
Typical work involves identifying patterns that keep problems going, testing small changes, and practicing skills between sessions. For someone struggling with substance use or co-occurring mood concerns, this can mean setting specific behavioral goals and using motivational interviewing to strengthen commitment. For anxiety or depression, it often includes breaking tasks into manageable parts and tracking how thoughts affect mood.
Anne also addresses concerns such as codependency, impulsivity, self-harm, traumatic brain injury effects, eating and sleeping problems, and women’s issues. She describes treatment as a collaborative process where the person’s priorities guide which methods are used. Progress is measured in concrete steps rather than vague promises.
Practical matters - scheduling, costs tied to location, and the subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time - are handled through the service’s intake flow. Prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment to begin.
How CBT, Client-Centered Work, and DBT Translate Online
Anne combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with client-centered methods and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills in practical ways. CBT focuses on noticing patterns of thinking, testing small behavioral changes, and tracking results over time; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-centered work prioritizes the person’s goals and choices, offering support that follows what the person says is most important. DBT provides concrete skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with impulsivity, self-harm urges, and relationship problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Anne will collaborate with each person to choose which methods to try and will adjust plans based on what helps most. That means setting clear goals, trying specific strategies, and reviewing what changed from session to session.
