About Anne
Anne Combs is an Ohio LPCC with 40 years in the behavioral health field. She has worked as a therapist, clinical supervisor, and administrator, and she now spends more time working directly with people who are dealing with daily struggles and looking for practical solutions.
She helps with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, self-esteem, guilt and shame, relationship and family concerns, career challenges, addiction, grief, and parenting. She also supports people facing life changes, compassion fatigue, and issues related to aging or attachment.
Anne focuses on the here and now. She recognizes the impact of past trauma but emphasizes ways to manage that impact today. Sessions tend to be interactive and practical, aimed at finding steps that move a person forward rather than dwelling on past details.
Her approach draws on client-centered ideas, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and mindfulness practices. She blends problem-solving and coaching perspectives when helpful, especially for work and career concerns.
People who meet with Anne can expect a conversational style with straightforward feedback and some humor. She values learning better communication skills and developing specific strategies to handle stressors.

How her approaches fit into online work
Anne often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in her work. CBT looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches specific skills to shift unhelpful thinking and behaviors. Solution-Focused Therapy targets a single problem at a time, sets a clear goal, and works toward practical steps to achieve that goal quickly.She also draws on client-centered principles and mindfulness practices to help people notice patterns and try different responses. Choosing the best approach is collaborative - she will talk with a client about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then adapt methods as needed over time.
Specific session formats are not listed in her biography, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - it can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a work day, or let someone join from a quieter spot without needing to be on camera. Licensed professionals, including therapists like her, aim to make sessions practical and focused so they fit into everyday routines.
