About Annis

Annis Reyes Frias is a licensed clinical social worker with 13 years of experience. She helps people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or difficult life changes. She also supports those coping with relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and low self-esteem.

Her approach is straightforward and practical. Sessions focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts, learning new coping skills, and improving communication. She uses common-sense tools so people can try things between meetings and track what helps.

She combines several therapeutic styles to fit each person’s needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy shape much of her work. She also incorporates EMDR and hypnotherapy when they seem useful to process trauma or access different ways of thinking.

Her aim is to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where people feel heard and can work toward everyday changes. Therapy sessions are collaborative and paced to match each person’s readiness for change.

Annis practices in Arizona and speaks both English and Spanish. If you want to begin, use the site’s Start Therapy button to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to her availability.

Therapeutic approaches you can try online

Annis uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people change unhelpful thinking and build practical habits. CBT focuses on spotting thought patterns that worsen mood and trying small behavior changes to test new ideas. ACT emphasizes identifying values and taking steps toward them, even when anxiety or sadness is present.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions focused on each person’s pace and priorities. That approach means the therapist listens closely and works alongside the client to set goals and choose techniques. Deciding which approach to use is a shared process based on your needs and preferences.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking. The therapist will help find an approach and schedule that fit your life and goals. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, remove travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises like CBT worksheets or ACT values work to an online setting so progress continues between meetings.
