About Anne
Anne Marie Herwig Ward is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Pennsylvania. She focuses on parenting and ADHD and also helps people facing impulsivity, social anxiety and phobia, questions about life purpose, and struggles with self-love.
She brings 20 years of clinical experience to sessions. That background helps her notice patterns, suggest practical steps, and adjust methods to each person. Sessions are meant to be straightforward and easy to understand for busy families.
Her style centers on listening closely and working alongside clients. She uses Client-Centered methods to follow what matters most to the person in the room. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to break down unhelpful thinking and Solution-Focused Therapy to build small, doable goals.
In practice she helps parents find clearer routines, supports people with attention and impulsivity challenges, and guides those coping with social fears. She aims to translate clinical ideas into everyday actions that fit family life and school demands.
Anne Marie prefers short, practical steps and collaborative planning. She shapes sessions around current needs and adjusts focus as progress is seen. People who want calm, goal-oriented support often find this approach helpful.

Approaches that guide online support
Anne Marie often uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change and strengthen commitment to small steps. This approach is useful for parenting goals and for people managing ADHD-related challenges who want to increase follow-through.
She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the listener on what each person says matters most, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which breaks down thoughts and actions into workable parts to reduce unhelpful patterns. Both methods aim to make concrete changes that fit daily life.
Finding the right method is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to choose approaches that match goals and preferences, and adapt the plan over time based on what helps most.
