About Ann
Ann Huyghe is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan who helps people handle strong emotions and life strain. She focuses on practical steps you can take when stress, anxiety, anger, or depression feel overwhelming. Ann keeps conversations respectful and sensitive while matching her work to each person’s needs.
She draws on 14 years of experience to shape short-term goals and longer-term skills. Sessions tend to center on clear strategies you can use outside of therapy, plus time to talk through painful events or relationship struggles.
Background and approach
She also addresses grief, parenting stress, career concerns, and challenges with self-esteem and identity. Ann uses a mix of approaches to fit the situation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps spot unhelpful thinking and change patterns.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports values-based choices when emotions are intense. Client-centered techniques create space for people to lead the pace of their work. In practice she works with mood disorders, ADHD, trauma and eating-related issues, and problems like guilt, shame, impulsivity, and obsessive thoughts.
She aims to make each session concrete - with tools, small experiments, and straightforward talk about progress. People who prefer practical, collaborative work often find her style useful. She meets people where they are and adjusts plans as needs shift.
If you want clear steps to manage anger, anxiety, or life change, Ann offers a steady, thoughtful approach.

Approaches that translate well to online care
Ann commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT is practical and structured, which can make homework and short exercises easy to do between online sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is another tool she uses to help people notice difficult feelings and choose actions that match their values. ACT supports acceptance and small, values-driven steps rather than trying to remove feeling altogether.Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. She will work with each person to see which methods fit their goals and preferences, and adjust over time. Clients and therapist together set priorities, try strategies, and check what feels most helpful as work progresses.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which lets people pick what fits their life. Video sessions work well for deeper conversations and screen-sharing worksheets. Phone calls are handy when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit brief updates, ongoing coaching, or people who prefer writing over speaking. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy schedule.
