About Anne
Anne Karsian is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who focuses on grief, loss, and life transitions. She listens to each person’s story and moves at their pace. Anne aims to help people feel heard and to find small steps back toward interest and joy.
She has seven years of clinical experience and has worked in acute care hospital settings as well as palliative and hospice organizations. That background means she often supports people facing major decisions, sudden change, or complicated health challenges. Anne also has a special interest in older adults navigating advanced care planning and downsizing.
In sessions she begins by learning what matters to the client, asking curious questions rather than rushing to solutions. That approach helps people name their feelings and understand what motivates them. Through clearer awareness, clients often discover practical ways to cope and to reengage with life.
Anne recognizes how grief and transitions can bring overwhelm, numbness, or loss of joy. She speaks from personal and professional experience about how hard those times can feel. Her focus is on walking alongside people as they work through painful, confusing, or sad moments.
People who come to Anne commonly want help with stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, career changes, and self-esteem challenges. Her background working with caregivers, chronic illness, and cancer-related issues also informs her work with complex emotional and practical problems.
