About Annis

Annis Reyes Frias is a licensed clinical social worker with 13 years of experience helping people cope with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and relationship strains. She works with adults facing trauma, life changes, and moments of uncertainty. Her approach is practical and down-to-earth, aimed at easing overwhelm and restoring a sense of direction.

Clients can expect straightforward talks that focus on what matters now. Sessions often involve noticing unhelpful thought patterns and practicing simple tools to reduce anxiety and lift mood. The work also looks at communication habits and ways to rebuild trust and connection in important relationships.

She draws on a mix of methods to match each person’s needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy invites people to clarify values and take steps toward a meaningful life. Other options include client-centered work and trauma-focused techniques when processing difficult memories.

Her style is collaborative and paced to the client. She prioritizes listening first, then introducing skills that fit daily life. Many people find this balance helpful when juggling busy schedules and strong emotions.

Fluent in English and Spanish, she practices in Arizona and holds licensure as an LCSW. If you are exploring therapy for self-esteem, relationship concerns, or major life changes, she can help you identify clear next steps and practical ways to move forward.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small, value-driven steps. It helps when life feels stuck and you want to move toward a clearer sense of purpose. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them. It is often used for anxiety, low mood, and worry. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, listening-first relationship where the therapist follows the client's lead and supports their own insights.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with you about your goals and preferences and then recommend methods that fit your situation. That choice is collaborative and can change as your needs evolve.

Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also means tools and skills can be practiced immediately in your daily routines. If you prefer Spanish or English, mention that when you schedule so language can be matched to your sessions.
