About Annette
Dr. Annette Sauselen is an independently licensed clinical counselor (LPCC) with 25 years of experience. She combines talk therapy with expressive approaches when that feels more helpful. Her work covers many concerns including depression, relationship strain, parenting stress, and the effects of physical or emotional trauma.
She keeps a calm, non-judgmental tone and offers practical challenges when progress calls for them. Sessions aim to give people space to tell their story and to try different ways of coping. Expressive therapy is offered for those who prefer to use art or creative activities as part of the work.
Dr. Sauselen uses a mix of approaches tailored to each person. Client-centered methods focus on the person in front of her. Cognitive behavioral ideas help with unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Psychodynamic and trauma-focused work looks at patterns rooted in past experiences when that fits the situation.
People come for help with grief, addictions, codependency, caregiver stress, mood disorders, and anger. She also supports those facing life changes, financial strain, family-of-origin problems, and midlife questions. The aim is to move from feeling stuck toward clearer choices and steadier days.
Her Ohio license is listed as LPCC. Sessions are conducted in English. Those interested should confirm current session options before booking, and can begin by using the site's Start Therapy flow.
How her approaches guide online work

This approach helps people feel heard and shapes sessions around what matters most to them.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT is practical for problems like depression, anxiety, and unhelpful behavior patterns that come up in everyday life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. That choice can change over time as progress is made.
