Ann Niebuhr, LPCC, practices in Minnesota and brings eight years of professional experience to her counseling work. She completed graduate training at Saint Marys University of Minnesota and is a board-certified counselor. Her practice addresses a range of concerns, with attention to stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression.
Her background includes an internship working with children and teenagers, offering play therapy, facilitating DBT groups, and providing addiction-focused services. That internship also involved work with attachment theory within family systems. She has pursued additional training in ERP for obsessive compulsive disorder, and her additional focus areas include issues such as attachment, dissociation, body image, chronic pain and illness, and process addictions.
Ann approaches each professional relationship by drawing on her documented training and clinical experience to tailor care to presenting concerns. She works with clients and families to explore patterns, identify coping options, and consider therapeutic strategies that relate directly to the challenges listed in her specialties and focus areas.
Remote care with structured and attachment-informed approaches
Ann Niebuhr offers remote sessions using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to support ongoing work. These communication options allow clients to continue therapeutic work from a distance while using the format that fits their schedule and comfort.
She has experience facilitating DBT groups and uses the skill-based elements of dialectical behavior therapy to help people build emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills. This approach tends to fit clients who want concrete tools to practice between sessions and a collaborative plan for skill development.
Ann also has additional training in ERP for obsessive compulsive concerns and has worked with attachment theory within family systems. ERP involves gradual, guided exposure to feared thoughts or situations while reducing unhelpful responses, and attachment-informed work examines relational patterns across family relationships. In remote sessions she discusses how these methods might be applied and adapts use of video, phone, chat, or messaging to support the chosen approach.
