About Anne
Anne Marie Pegg is a New York licensed clinical social worker with 16 years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, parenting concerns, anger, and depression. She presents a calm, respectful presence and aims to meet people where they are.
She works with each person to shape conversations and a plan that match their needs and goals. That means practical, straightforward sessions where the therapist and client decide together what to try next. She emphasizes sensitivity and compassion while keeping things clear and doable.
Anne Marie has worked with people facing a range of challenges including caregiver stress, isolation and loneliness, financial worries, and issues related to autism or intellectual disability. She also supports people coping with post-traumatic stress, self-harm thoughts, and the effects of natural or human-caused disaster. Her practice includes attention to family of origin concerns, infidelity, workplace problems, and women's issues.
Her approach is collaborative: she listens, helps clarify what matters most, and suggests steps clients can take between sessions. She encourages small changes that add up over time and checks in about what is or isn't working.
If someone is nervous about starting therapy, she acknowledges that first steps are hard and offers steady support while clients build toward a more satisfying life. Sessions are delivered according to the platform's matching and scheduling process.
Approaches and how online work can help
Anne Marie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage symptoms and improve daily functioning. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing different ways of thinking to reduce anxiety and low mood; this helps people break cycles that keep them stuck. Another frequent focus is skills-based work for managing strong emotions and anger, teaching practical strategies for calming down and responding differently when stress mounts. Choosing the right approach is part of the process. She works together with each person to figure out which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress is made. That makes the work feel practical and personalized rather than one-size-fits-all. If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats available before booking so you know what to expect. Online options can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, save travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Therapists can use video or phone sessions where supported, and together with the client they choose a format that best fits daily routines and treatment goals.Areas of expertise
