It is wonderful that you are taking the first step because it is one of the hardest parts toward making positive change. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Addictions Counselor II. I graduated from Colorado Christian University with a Master of Arts in Counseling in 2008. I have worked in a variety of counseling roles in private practice, court referred victims, residential, and recovery inpatient settings. The clients I have worked with have experienced a wide range of concerns including adjustments and change; past and recent or current trauma; marriage, family, parenting and relationship dynamics; dependency and addiction issues; employment and homelessness; grief and loss; coping; anxiety; depression; personality disorders; self-esteem; purpose and fulfillment and etc. My style of counseling is very client-centered. I want to meet you where you are at and foster a warm and safe place to process and navigate through past and present difficulties and experiences. I am very compassionate and empathetic. I believe everyone is made uniquely and deserves respect and understanding. Therefore, I draw from a variety of counseling theories and techniques that is best fitting to the individual’s needs, desires and goals. I commonly gravitate toward family systems, cognitive behavioral, solution focused, strengths based, motivational interviewing, narrative, existential, psycho-dynamic and more therapy modalities to help us work together toward solutions. Life can catch up with us or become challenging at various seasons and having someone present to walk alongside us is helpful. As you are ready, I am passionate to help people heal and find hope towards the changes you desire to live life to the fullest. I am honored to be a part of that journey.

Ann Newman
Hello! Welcome to Better Help! My name is Ann Newman (She/Her), and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a Licensed Addiction Counselor practicing in Colorado. I graduated from Newman University in 2012, and have been working in the social services field with a wide variety of clients for 15 years. I discovered my passion for helping others when I first went to college, realizing quickly that the Business field I was initially interested in would never be as fulfilling as aiding another person to get through a tough time. During my career, I have worked with children in foster care, family reunification, individuals with intellectual disabilities, individuals in a prison setting , LGBT individuals, and more recently with individuals, families, and groups with diagnoses of substance use and mental health disorders. I would describe my clinical approach as trauma-informed and client centered, with the goal of understanding what you want from your therapeutic experience and creating realistic goals we can achieve together. I employ Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and skills based learning, combined with an empathetic approach to your unique situation. I can work with you through video, phone, or chat. However I find being able to connect through video to be most helpful in developing a strong therapeutic connection. My availability is mostly weekends, and I check my messages at least once a day throughout the week. This is a great first step in helping yourself feel better and to begin a conversation geared towards your goals and needs. Sometimes we just need someone to talk to so we can sort it all out. I look forward to working with you!

I have practiced therapy in a variety of settings with people of different ages. I bring experience from working in addiction treatment, mental health treatment, hospital outpatient clinics, social service agencies, and schools. My approach to therapy is to focus on the person instead of theory. Yes, I'm trained in many clinical approaches and I know each of those approaches is most effective when applied in a relationship with the client. I've been trained by Native American, Hispanic, African American, Caucasian, and Asian therapists. My work includes providing treatment to people of different sexual orientations, physical abilities, and life stages. I enjoy our differences and have a common focus with each person. I provide training in the skills that will allow you to change your life in important ways. For example, my focus is on reducing emotional suffering, ending painful habits, and increasing the ability to live a life of abundance. My goal is to help you: Reduce the intensity of depression or anxiety in your life, Increase the length of time between bouts of panic, fear, or excessive worry, Reduce the frequency of your hopelessness or helplessness, Increase your ease in communication with significant others, Build your resilience to the challenges of living, and Reduce your overall emotional pain and suffering.
