About Anna
Anna Lehew Kelley is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 12 years of experience. She approaches sessions without judgment and partners with people to find practical steps forward. Anna aims to create a calm space where concerns can be named and a path mapped out.
She uses straightforward, collaborative methods to spot patterns that keep problems repeating. When needed she helps people change unhelpful thoughts and build skills for managing strong emotions.
Background and approach
Anna draws on a mix of relationship-focused and trauma-informed approaches, including the Gottman Method, to address conflicts and improve communication. Her background includes a Master of Social Work from the University of Pittsburgh, and licensure in West Virginia and Ohio. That clinical training informs her work with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma, grief, parenting strain, ADHD, and life changes.
She also supports those facing divorce, infidelity, or challenges from service in the armed forces. In sessions she blends practical skill-building with close listening. Depending on what each person needs, she may introduce exercises for emotion regulation, structured problem solving, or ways to repair interactions with a partner.
The focus is on clear, doable steps rather than long lectures. People who choose her can expect a steady, collaborative approach that balances understanding with action. She helps clients decide what matters most, then works with them to try new ways of coping and connecting.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches for online relationship and trauma work
Anna often blends Gottman Method work with Attachment-Based and Client-Centered approaches. The Gottman Method focuses on improving communication and resolving recurring conflicts in relationships through practical exercises and structured conversations. Attachment-Based work looks at how early bonds shape current reactions and helps people build more supported ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and meeting people where they are so goals feel personally meaningful.Finding the right combination of approaches is collaborative. The therapist will listen to your goals, try a method, and adjust based on what helps. Clients and the therapist decide together whether to focus on communication skills, emotion regulation, trauma processing, or a mix of those elements.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for couples work or detailed skill practice. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief updates, homework, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit sessions into busy schedules and maintain continuity of care.
