Practitioner record · Checked 7 Nov 2026
Anne Ethier has been in practice 20 years and is licensed in Georgia. Anne lists stress, Anxiety, addictions and relationship issues among 19 subjects on the BetterHelp roster.
Everything below is either quoted from Anne's own BetterHelp listing, taken from public licensing records, or written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such. Nothing here is an availability promise, a review, or a rating.
01 · Who Anne works with
Anne lists 5 specialisms and 14 further focus areas. Specialisms are the subjects Anne chose to list first, which is the closest a listing gets to “this is my actual practice”.
02 · In Anne's own words
Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.
You are designed with purpose, and meant to flourish. It is possible to live into healing, freedom, and relationships marked by trust and emotional safety - even if past experiences, trauma, or long-standing struggles have made that feel out of reach.
In therapy, you’ll be supported in addressing challenges such as anxiety, depression, addiction, eating disorders, and relational distress, while uncovering the deeper roots that often drive these patterns. Together, we’ll work toward lasting change that engages both mind and body.
Anne Ethier, LPC, has served individuals and couples in private practice since 2006, drawing from over three decades in the health and wellness field. Her integrative approach blends cognitive understanding with body-oriented therapy to support holistic healing.
With a foundation in somatic awareness and Hakomi therapy, sessions focus on present-moment experiences to foster insight, emotional regulation, and transformation.
Anne also partners with couples seeking a stronger connection, restored trust, and healthier communication.
You are not irreparably broken - you are becoming. Therapy is a space to grow, heal, and move toward a more fulfilling life.

03 · How Anne works
These are the clinical methods Anne lists. The descriptions are Maker Therapy's, not Anne's - a general explanation of what each method is, so the list means something before you have spoken to anybody. They are not a claim about how Anne runs a session.

04 · What happens next
Anne practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Anne's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.
BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Anne at this point.
BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Anne is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Anne.
You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.
A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.
Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.
05 · Before you commit
Built from what Anne actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Anne's - Anne has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.
“How do you decide when someone is ready to work on a traumatic memory itself?”
Pacing is the biggest safety question in trauma work. A clear, unhurried answer here matters more than any credential.
“With 20 years in, what has changed most in how you work?”
Long experience is only an advantage if it has been examined. This tends to surface whether it has.
“How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”
On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.
