About Anne
Anne George is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with 12 years of clinical experience. She centers her work on practical steps that help people manage relationship strain, parenting challenges, and addictive patterns. She emphasizes the client’s own strengths and choices as the foundation for change.
Her style is direct and supportive. Sessions focus on short-term skills and clearer communication, along with examining patterns that keep problems repeating.
Background and approach
She helps clients name what matters, set small goals, and practice new responses between sessions. Anne draws from several evidence-informed approaches. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and build willingness to act.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Attachment-based ideas guide work on trust, closeness, and issues that stem from early relationships. Parents often come for help with blended family stress, co-parenting tension, or the emotional fallout of separation.
She also works with people facing burnout, compassion fatigue, body image and eating concerns, and attention-related struggles. Conversations aim to be practical and goal-focused rather than theoretical. Clients can expect a collaborative tone.
Anne invites people to co-design the work, matching strategies to each person’s life and schedule. Her approach balances empathy with concrete tools so clients can make measurable changes over time.

Therapeutic approaches for online parenting and relationship work
Anne often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. ACT focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match personal priorities, which can help with parenting stress, addiction, and life transitions.She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to understand patterns of closeness and trust. This approach looks at how early relationship experiences shape current responses and helps people practice new ways of relating when they feel triggered or distant.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then adapt techniques from different models in collaboration with the client. That means sessions can shift over time as needs change.
Online formats offer practical benefits for busy parents and people with full schedules. Video calls let you use visual cues and role-play communication skills. Phone sessions can fit into a short break and require less bandwidth. Live chat or text-based messaging support quick check-ins, homework prompts, and brief coaching between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while juggling day-to-day demands.
