Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor
With over three decades of experience in the health and wellness industry, Anne Ethier, LPC, has been dedicated to empowering individuals and couples on their journey toward healing and growth. Since 2006, she has operated a private practice in Athens, GA, where her compassionate approach focuses on addiction, eating disorders, depression, and anxiety issues often rooted in trauma.
Anne is passionate about helping clients remember that they are a work in progress while discovering more freedom and flourishing in their relationships in a flawed and often weary world. She works not only with individuals but also with couples who long for deeper bonds of trust and emotional safety.
Her unique blend of body-oriented therapy and cognitive understanding of psychotherapy allows her to address the complex interplay between physical symptoms and emotional well-being.
Trained early in her career as a massage therapist and fitness instructor, Anne utilizes present-moment awareness as a gateway to deeper psychological understanding, drawing from her studies in Hakomi therapy. She is also trained in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT), the gold standard for couples therapy, whose experiential and attachment-based approach integrates naturally with her body-centered work.
Since 2014, Anne has been committed to elevating the field of counseling by offering and teaching continuing education courses for fellow counselors, sharing her expertise and insights with others in the profession.
Anne’s holistic approach fosters hope and healing, encouraging clients to embrace their journey toward a more fulfilling life.
