About AnneMarie

AnneMarie Winic is a licensed clinical social worker with 24 years of practice in California. She focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety and on building more satisfying relationships. She also supports those facing parenting challenges, low self-esteem, motivation struggles, and symptoms of depression.

She approaches work with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Sessions are shaped around the person's needs rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. That means conversations and goals change as progress is made.

Background and approach

AnneMarie uses methods that pay attention to how early bonds and current relationships affect feelings and behavior. She also draws on client-centered approaches that keep the person's experience central. Practical tools from cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior approaches are used when helpful to address patterns and coping skills.

She is comfortable working with hearing impaired clients and can communicate in American Sign Language as well as English. Her background includes many years supporting adults who feel stuck by guilt, shame, codependency, or family-of-origin issues. In sessions she helps clients talk through communication problems, workplace stress, questions about life purpose, and challenges that often come in young adulthood or midlife.

The work aims to help people find clearer direction and greater self-compassion.

Online support

Attachment and skills-based care delivered online

AnneMarie integrates attachment-based therapy to look at how early relationships shape current feelings and patterns. This helps people understand why certain relationship dynamics or emotional reactions keep repeating and gives a framework for changing those patterns.

She also uses client-centered therapy that keeps the person's own experience at the center of each session, and cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small, practical changes. Together these approaches aim to deepen understanding while building concrete coping strategies for stress, anxiety, and relationship strain.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. AnneMarie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps most.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is useful for full conversation and visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, and messaging formats suit quick check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep contact between appointments when useful.
