About Annie

Annie McFadden is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 18 years of experience. She works with adults on problems such as stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma and abuse, relationship struggles, anger, parenting concerns, and major life changes. Annie also lists areas like ADHD, grief, intimacy-related issues, and career concerns among her work.

Annie moved from a community mental health setting where she assessed, diagnosed, and treated a wide range of mental health and behavioral issues. That role included clinical leadership and work across age groups, though she now practices in a private setting. Her background gives her experience with both short-term and longer-term clinical work.

She describes an integrative approach that draws on several methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) are frequent tools. She also uses Client-Centered ideas, Emotionally-Focused Therapy elements, Mindfulness practices, and Motivational Interviewing where helpful.

In sessions she aims to build a working partnership grounded in honesty, clear communication, and respect. She brings practical techniques alongside conversations about values and goals. For someone dealing with anger that flashes up at home or smolders into resentment, this can mean learning skills to notice triggers, choose responses, and realign behavior with what's important.

Annie integrates clients' personal beliefs when relevant and works collaboratively to decide which approaches to use. To begin, she asks about current concerns and what a better day looks like, then shapes a plan that mixes talking and concrete skill practice.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying personal values and taking committed action in line with those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts or feelings. It can help when anger gets in the way of relationships or goals by shifting toward value-driven choices.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It uses practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking patterns and build new coping skills for things like workplace frustration or reactive anger.

She treats the choice of approach as a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life demands. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together.

Confirm session formats before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, use shorter check-ins when needed, and practice skills between meetings. It also lets clients combine talking and exercises in ways that fit their routine. If you want to know the exact session types offered, confirm those details before scheduling.
