AnnMarie Lehrer , LPC

AnnMarie Lehrer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia who works with teens and adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges. She assists clients navigating parenting concerns and supports those working to improve motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. Her practice also addresses practical life skills such as communication, time management, decision making, and organization, and includes experience with addiction and recovery.

AnnMarie approaches therapy from the standpoint that each person is the expert on their own life and already carries strengths that can be used to overcome obstacles. She recognizes that seeking change takes courage and aims to stand alongside clients as they take that first step toward a more fulfilling life. Her role is to offer guidance, tools, and steady support while clients build insight and direction.

Whether the immediate goal is problem solving or longer-term personal growth, AnnMarie focuses on creating a collaborative environment where goals are clarified and progress is supported. She helps clients draw on existing strengths to address challenges and move toward greater satisfaction and well-being.

Online Therapeutic Approaches and Flexible Care

AnnMarie integrates several evidence-based methods into her online work to help clients address symptoms and build skills. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify personal values and take committed steps toward a meaningful life, even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a compassionate, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist listens closely and supports the client's own path to growth.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and AnnMarie works collaboratively with clients and other licensed professionals to determine which methods best match a client's needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time based on progress and feedback.

Online therapy with AnnMarie offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging. This range of options makes it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, access support from home, and continue care through different life stages, while maintaining the therapeutic focus on client goals and progress.
