Please, note: A clinician listed as being “clinically supervised” is completing clinical hours toward their licensure. They have one or more fully licensed clinical supervisors that often have special training to become supervisors. They consult with their supervisor(s) on all of their cases, which means that, when working with them, you are getting the time and expertise of multiple therapists in your treatment.

My personality greatly influences my approach to therapy. I’m naturally empathetic and compassionate, which helps me create a warm and supportive environment where clients feel safe to share their experiences. I believe in the power of genuine connection and trust, and my friendly, approachable demeanor helps build strong therapeutic relationships. Humor also plays a crucial role in my practice. I find that incorporating humor into sessions can lighten the mood, make difficult topics more approachable, and help clients feel more at ease. It’s a wonderful tool for breaking down barriers and fostering a sense of connection. By balancing empathy, openness, and humor, I strive to create a therapeutic space that is both comforting and empowering, allowing clients to explore their emotions and experiences with confidence.

Hi there! I’m Anne Keen, and I’m here to help you navigate your journey to healing. My diverse experiences in the mental health field have shaped my approach to therapy, making it comprehensive and empathetic. I started in community mental health, where I supported clients of all ages facing trauma, anxiety, and depression. This experience taught me the importance of creating personalized treatment plans and working collaboratively with other professionals to provide holistic care. I also co-facilitated a women’s group therapy session focused on relationships, self-esteem, and empowerment. This was an incredibly rewarding experience, as it highlighted the power of shared experiences and group support in fostering healing and growth. Additionally, my time with the pediatric palliative care team at Arnold Palmer was invaluable. Specializing in grief counseling, I learned best practices for supporting children and their families during some of their most challenging times. This role deepened my empathy and understanding of loss and its impact on individuals and families. These experiences have equipped me with the tools to offer you a safe, supportive, and effective therapeutic environment. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, relationship issues, or life transitions, I’m here to help. Let’s work together to build a brighter future.
