About Anna

Anna Lehew Kelley is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 12 years of experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship strain. She offers a warm, nonjudgmental approach and aims to help people feel safer talking about hard things. Anna treats addiction, grief, anger, ADHD concerns, and life changes with steady, practical support.

She blends attachment-focused ideas with client-centered care to understand how relationships and early patterns shape current struggles.

Background and approach

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used to notice and change unhelpful thinking, while Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills help with emotional regulation and distress tolerance. She also uses EMDR when trauma memories are keeping someone stuck. Sessions focus on collaboration.

The therapist helps identify patterns, try out new ways of coping, and build concrete skills for daily life. People can expect a mix of talking, skill practice, and problem-solving aimed at real-world progress. Anna trained at the University of Pittsburgh and holds LCSW credentials in West Virginia and Ohio.

Her background includes work with people affected by PTSD, substance use, and relationship conflict, including issues related to first responder and veteran experiences. She frames therapy as a partnership where goals and pace are set together. Therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs.

Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

Online support

How attachment work and skills translate online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape feelings and behavior. Online sessions use conversation and reflective exercises to identify patterns in relationships and to build more supported ways of connecting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioral experiments; this translates well to video or phone when a person practices skills between sessions. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) can be used for trauma processing by guiding memory work and calming skills in session to reduce the intensity of distressing memories.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust based on what helps most. That collaborative process helps decide whether attachment-focused exploration, CBT skill work, or trauma-focused tools like EMDR are the best path forward.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in more frequently and use written reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care while juggling work, family, or other commitments.
