About Annette
Annette Church is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Arizona with 20 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma, and anger. She also supports concerns like relationship strain, grief, sleep problems, parenting challenges, and career stress.
Her style is client-centered. She starts by listening and then matches methods to what a person needs. She uses plain language and checks progress each session so people can see whether the work is helping.
Annette draws from several practical approaches. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and build new skills. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy to help people notice feelings and take values-based action. Motivational Interviewing and solution-focused ideas appear when someone wants clearer steps and goals.
She also brings experience working with addiction-related issues and offers support around compassion fatigue and caregiving challenges, including hospice and end-of-life matters. Her background includes supervising other therapists and combining brief, goal-oriented work with longer-term support when needed.
Sessions are conversational and straightforward. Annette aims to reduce shame about seeking change and to give tools people can use outside sessions. She asks for regular check-ins on progress and adapts methods if something isn’t working.

How her approaches are used in online sessions
Annette frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thought patterns that fuel anger and to practice alternative responses. CBT focuses on clear steps and behavior changes, which can help with work stress, panic moments, and recurring upset.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people identify values and take actions that matter despite strong feelings. ACT and mindfulness practices teach noticing sensations and choosing actions rather than reacting, which is useful for resentment, grief, and ongoing frustration.
Finding the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. She will work with each person to decide which approaches fit their goals and make adjustments if something is not helping. That teamwork is part of the session plan and shapes homework between meetings.
If you want to use online sessions, confirm the supported session options before booking. The platform details aren’t specified here, so please check what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and guided practices to work over distance, and Annette will aim to match methods to your circumstances during the first sessions.
