About BreeAnne
BreeAnne Williams is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in California who centers her work on evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
Background and approach
With six years of professional experience, she supports people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, self-esteem difficulties, and life transitions by emphasizing client strengths and practical skills. She approaches therapy from a collaborative, client-centered stance, helping clients identify patterns that contribute to distress and developing concrete strategies to address them.
BreeAnne draws on mindfulness practices and solution-focused tools to build resilience and clarify actionable goals, and she incorporates motivational interviewing when exploring ambivalence or fostering behavior change. Her work also addresses related concerns such as communication problems, guilt and shame, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, and social anxiety.
Clients work with BreeAnne to explore personal values and capabilities while learning coping techniques tailored to their needs. She frames the therapeutic process as a partnership that honors each person as the expert of their own story and supports steps toward greater well-being and more fulfilling day-to-day functioning.
Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It offers practical tools for managing anxiety, depression, and mood difficulties by breaking problems into manageable steps and practicing new skills between sessions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the therapist listens deeply and supports clients in exploring their values and goals. This approach can help people feel heard and develop self-directed change.
Deciding which approach to use is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist works collaboratively with each person to match techniques to their goals, preferences, and the challenges they bring, adjusting strategies as progress and needs evolve.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes it easier to access care from different locations and fit sessions into busy schedules. These formats provide flexibility for people who prefer real-time conversations or the convenience of messaging, while allowing licensed professionals to apply CBT, client-centered, and mindfulness-informed methods in ways that suit each client's life and learning style.
