About AnnMarie
AnnMarie Lehrer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and parenting challenges. She works with teens and adults to build confidence, improve motivation, and strengthen self-esteem. Her style is straightforward and supportive, aimed at helping clients take practical steps forward.
She uses a mix of talking and skills work to address common everyday problems like time management, communication, and decision making. Sessions also tackle organization and the routines that shape how people feel and act. AnnMarie brings experience supporting people through addiction and recovery too.
Her approach begins by recognizing each person’s strengths and knowledge of their own life. She encourages small, concrete changes and helps clients practice new ways of handling stress and intense emotions. That work often includes learning tools to reduce worry and manage difficult moments.
AnnMarie draws on several evidence-informed methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. She blends these approaches to match what each person needs rather than following a single method.
In sessions she focuses on clear goals like improving communication, repairing attachment wounds, or reducing symptoms of depression and anxiety. The aim is practical progress that fits each person’s life and values.
Her background includes six years of clinical experience working with teens and adults. She holds an LPC credential in Georgia and conducts work in English.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed steps toward them while learning simple ways to relate differently to painful thoughts and feelings. It can help people feeling stuck by guiding small, consistent actions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical tools for spotting and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns that feed anxiety and depression. Those tools are useful for everyday stress, parenting struggles, and improving mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding and reshaping emotional responses in close relationships to improve connection and communication.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences and jointly decide which methods to try. That collaborative process makes it easier to shift tactics if something isn’t helping.
Confirm the available session options before booking, as formats are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people use visual or audio-only sessions depending on comfort and bandwidth. Overall, the same therapeutic methods described above can be adapted to an online setting to focus on skills practice, emotion work, and clear goal-setting that fit daily life.
