About Anne
Anne Douglas is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 25 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, addictions, parenting strains, and major life changes. Anne works with adults on career and self-esteem issues as well as coping with chronic illness and caregiver stress.
Her approach is practical and collaborative. She listens first, then helps people name problems and choose steps that fit their life.
Background and approach
Sessions often include talking through patterns, trying new ways to communicate, and building skills to manage mood and behavior. Anne draws on attachment-focused work, client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, emotionally focused ideas, and Jungian perspectives. She tailors these approaches to each person rather than using a single method for everyone.
Goals and next steps are agreed on together so progress is clear and measurable. Anne holds the Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist credential - LMFT - and maintains licenses in Michigan and North Carolina. Her background includes university teaching, supervision, and long experience with family and relationship issues.
She has also provided coaching for people making big life transitions. Therapy is available through video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. People who prefer online formats can complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions to fit their needs in North Carolina and elsewhere within her licensure limits.

How Anne's Approaches Work Online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early bonds shape current relationships. It helps people notice patterns in closeness and care and practice safer ways of connecting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. It teaches practical tools to change unhelpful thinking and reduce anxiety or mood symptoms. Emotionally-Focused Therapy centers on emotional needs in relationships and helps partners or individuals name feelings and respond with more empathy.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels helpful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made so the approach fits the person’s life and needs.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break, and text or chat can be used for quick check-ins or ongoing support between appointments. These options make scheduling easier and allow people to work on relationship patterns, grief, stress, or behavior change from wherever they are able to participate.
