About Annette
Annette Skeen is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in South Carolina with 14 years of experience. She builds a welcoming space where people can talk about stress, anxiety, trauma, and changes in life. Her style is collaborative and straightforward, so clients can feel heard and involved in the work.
She mixes evidence-based therapeutic techniques with a relationship-centered approach. That means she uses proven methods while paying attention to how people connect and respond in sessions.
How Annette works
The goal is to help with depression, low self-esteem, and coping during life transitions. Annette also focuses on concerns like abandonment, attachment issues, and family of origin problems. She offers care for people dealing with divorce, blended family challenges, and domestic violence histories.
First responder issues, veteran and armed forces concerns, and post-traumatic stress are also areas she addresses. In sessions she attends to practical needs like communication problems, guilt and shame, and finding life purpose. She helps people explore self-love and work through midlife stressors.
Her approach adapts to each person’s story and goals rather than following one fixed plan. People who prefer a counselor who listens, explains techniques plainly, and collaborates on next steps may find her approach helpful. To get started, follow the site process to match with her and schedule a session according to availability.

How evidence-based methods translate to online work
Annette uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques alongside a relationship-centered approach. Evidence-based methods are structured ways of working that focus on skills and strategies to manage symptoms, such as tools for reducing anxiety or methods to process trauma. The relationship-centered part means attention to how people connect and feel supported during sessions.These approaches help with anxiety, depression, trauma-related concerns, and life transitions by teaching specific coping skills and by using guided conversation to reframe difficult experiences. Choosing the right mix of techniques is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and adjust methods so the work fits each person’s needs.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm the current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins that match daily routines. It can also allow shorter or more frequent meetings when that supports progress. Licensed professionals tailor scheduling and session length to help therapy fit into everyday life.
