About Annie

Annie Paul brings a client-centered approach grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to her Delaware practice. As an LCSW with four years of professional experience, she guides people through anxiety, depression, bipolar symptoms, and the everyday pressures of stress and low self-esteem.

Background and approach

She emphasizes practical strategies that help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop clearer, more effective coping skills. Her style blends empathy with solution-focused planning and mindfulness techniques to support change across a range of concerns, including relationship strain, grief, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, and adjustments related to major life transitions.

Annie also has training and focus in hospice and end-of-life counseling, offering specialized attention to those navigating loss and planning. Clients can expect a collaborative environment where goals are shaped together and progress is measured by meaningful shifts in daily functioning and wellbeing.

Annie encourages taking the first step toward support and works to create a space where thoughts and feelings are acknowledged without judgment.

Integrating CBT and Mindfulness into Online Care

Annie commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness-based techniques when working with clients online. CBT helps people identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors by breaking problems into small, practical steps, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Mindfulness Therapy emphasizes present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance, supporting emotion regulation and reducing reactivity in daily life.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to explore goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, adapting methods over time so the treatment fits the client rather than the client fitting a single model.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, continue care during life transitions, and maintain consistent contact between meetings while allowing therapists to apply CBT exercises, mindfulness practices, and solution-focused planning in ways that suit each client's routines and needs.
