About AnneMarie
AnneMarie Winic is a licensed clinical social worker with 24 years of professional experience in California. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, parenting strains, and depression. Her approach is respectful and compassionate, and she aims to tailor conversations and plans to each person's needs.
AnneMarie frames therapy as a collaborative process. She listens first, then works with clients to set goals that matter to them. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking, not on jargon. She emphasizes building confidence and motivation one step at a time.
Her work often draws on attachment ideas to understand how past relationships shape current patterns. She also uses skills-based methods to manage intense emotions and change unhelpful habits. These tools can help with communication problems, codependency, and caregiver stress.
Clients who are hearing impaired can be supported in sessions, and services are offered in English and American Sign Language. She makes room to talk about life purpose, emptiness, and the common difficulties of midlife and young adulthood.
AnneMarie describes the first step as a conversation where people decide what feels most useful. That might include short-term goals like reducing anxiety attacks, or longer work on self-love and boundary setting. She aims to empower people to make choices that fit their daily lives.
