About Annette

Dr. Annette Solomon is a Michigan psychologist with 21 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, anxiety, relationship and intimacy-related issues, grief, and stress. She also addresses ADHD, bipolar concerns, sleeping problems, and caregiving stress. Dr. Solomon practices in English and serves clients in Michigan.

She uses clear, goal-focused methods to help people notice and change patterns that cause distress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one of the approaches she uses to identify unhelpful thoughts and test different behaviors. She also draws on client-centered listening, mindfulness, existential reflection, and motivational interviewing to support practical steps forward.

Clients often work on concrete problems such as managing anger, improving communication, coping with chronic illness, or addressing substance use. Sessions typically include setting specific goals, trying behavioral experiments, and reviewing what helps between meetings. The emphasis is on small, repeatable changes rather than abstract theory.

Dr. Solomon earned her doctorate in clinical psychology from Wright State University School of Professional Psychology. She has a long record of working with people who have complex medical and life stressors, including HIV/AIDS and spinal cord injuries, and has experience on multidisciplinary medical teams and with Veterans.

Her background includes many years of clinical practice and ongoing use of evidence-informed techniques. Fees vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Dr. Solomon uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT usually involves setting clear goals, doing short exercises between sessions, and reviewing what worked to change daily habits. She also uses client-centered therapy to focus on listening and understanding the person’s priorities, helping them set actionable steps based on their concerns.

Existential therapy is used when people want to address larger questions about meaning, choice, and responsibility. In practice this can mean talking through values, weighing options, and deciding on purposeful next steps. The therapist works with the person to see which mix of methods fits best, and that decision is made together based on goals and preferences.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a day - for example a shorter check-in during a lunch break, or sessions without needing travel time. People often find it simpler to keep up with homework between meetings when sessions fit their existing routine.
