About Anne

Anne Marie Pegg is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in New York. She brings 16 years of professional experience to sessions and focuses on practical support for stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, anger, and depression. She aims to meet each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.

Her approach centers on tailoring conversation and plans to each person's needs. She listens to what feels most urgent and helps set small, realistic steps forward.

Background and approach

Sessions emphasize clear, usable strategies rather than jargon. Parents and adults looking for down-to-earth guidance often find this straightforward style helpful. Pegg has worked across many common life stressors and related issues, including caregiver stress, workplace problems, isolation and loneliness, and financial worries.

She also has experience with trauma-related concerns such as post-traumatic stress and recovery after disasters. These topics often come into sessions alongside mood and anxiety symptoms. She can discuss family of origin patterns, infidelity, and relationship strains in plain language to help people understand their options.

Pegg also supports people managing intellectual disability, autism and Asperger Syndrome, and issues around self-harm and self-love, adapting approaches to individual abilities and needs. Therapy with Pegg uses evidence-based techniques applied in a way that fits each person. She encourages collaboration when shaping goals and checking progress.

The work is practical, compassionate, and focused on what will help day to day.

Therapeutic approaches and online options that fit busy lives

Anne Marie Pegg uses evidence-based techniques tailored to each person. She emphasizes methods that teach skills for managing anxiety and mood, and practical tools for handling relationship and parenting stress. For example, behavioral strategies focus on changing everyday routines and reactions to reduce anxiety and improve mood. These techniques help when stress or depression make daily tasks harder to manage.

She also uses problem-focused interventions that break down relationship or parenting difficulties into clear steps. This approach helps people identify patterns, try small changes, and see what works. Both approaches are adaptable to different situations and abilities, and are explained in plain language during sessions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals, try methods, and adjust plans based on what feels useful. Clients and the therapist decide together how to combine techniques to match needs and preferences.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats offer flexibility for scheduling around work, caregiving, or school. They also make it easier to continue work during busy periods or when travel or local constraints limit in-person care. Licensed professionals can use these formats to teach skills, review progress, and support day-to-day problem solving.
