About AnnMarie

AnnMarie Lehrer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia who works with adults and teens facing stress, anxiety, depression, and challenges in relationships and parenting. She emphasizes clients' strengths and encourages practical steps toward greater confidence, motivation, and life satisfaction.

Background and approach

Her practice also addresses self-esteem, communication, time management, decision making, organization, and recovery from addiction. Using a collaborative, client-centered stance, she supports people as they identify patterns that maintain distress and experiment with new ways of responding.

AnnMarie brings six years of clinical experience to her work and draws from several evidence-informed methods to tailor treatment to each person’s needs. Areas she commonly helps with include attachment concerns, body image, caregiver stress, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation, life purpose, post-traumatic stress, pregnancy and childbirth, self-love, and women’s issues.

Clients can expect a respectful, strengths-based approach that honors individual goals while introducing skills and perspectives to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Her therapeutic style blends validation with practical interventions to help people move toward the life changes they seek.

Using Evidence-Informed Approaches in Online Care



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, offering practical skills for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes values-driven action and mindfulness, guiding clients to accept difficult feelings while committing to meaningful life directions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathetic listening and collaboration, creating space for clients to explore their goals and build self-understanding.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to identify priorities, try strategies, and adjust the plan based on what fits their needs and preferences. This partnership helps ensure that therapy stays relevant and responsive as goals evolve.

Online sessions make these approaches accessible through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats offer flexibility for scheduling, allow clients to engage from their everyday environments, and support continued skill practice between sessions. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and interventions to work well in each format so that treatment remains practical and focused on real-life changes.
