Anne Ethier, LPC

Anne Ethier, LPC, guides individuals and couples toward healing, greater emotional safety, and more satisfying relationships. She frames struggles like anxiety, addiction, eating concerns, and relational distress as signals pointing to deeper patterns, and helps clients explore those roots with gentle curiosity and practical strategies. Her work combines attention to thought patterns with body-centered awareness so that insight and regulation occur both mentally and physically.

Anne has worked in private practice since 2006 and brings two decades of clinical experience to her sessions. As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), she blends cognitive-informed techniques with somatic awareness and the Hakomi approach, focusing on present-moment experience to support emotional regulation and meaningful change. This integrative style aims to create lasting shifts rather than quick fixes.

She also works with couples to rebuild connection, restore trust, and improve communication. Anne approaches therapy with the belief that people are not irreparably broken but are in the process of becoming, and she offers a collaborative, compassionate space for that work to unfold.

Somatic-Informed and Integrative Care Online

Anne uses somatic or body-oriented work to help clients notice how emotions and physical sensations are connected. This approach involves gentle tracking of breath, posture, movement, and bodily sensations to support emotional regulation and to uncover patterns that maintain anxiety, trauma responses, or addictive behaviors.

She also draws on the Hakomi method, a mindfulness-centered therapy that explores present-moment experience to access core beliefs and foster lasting change. Hakomi is helpful for people working through attachment issues, shame, or relational patterns because it emphasizes safety, curiosity, and experiential insight.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Anne collaborates with each client to determine which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods as healing unfolds.

Online therapy with Anne is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for scheduling and accessibility across different circumstances. These options make it easier to maintain consistent care while choosing the format that feels most comfortable for the client.
