My name is Ann Holabird and I've been a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) for 18 years. Although my practice is based in Pasadena, California, I work with clients all across the state via telehealth. Throughout my years as a therapist, I've worked with many populations and addressed many mental health conditions. In working with telehealth, however, I've found that teens through older adults adapt best to the teletherapy format. Similarly, certain presenting problems are more effectively treated via video than others.

I understand how complicated life can become, leading to such challenges as divorce, struggles raising children, blended families, difficult relationships, trauma, and loss.

Our ideal client appreciates investing in the counseling process and knows its benefits. They value ongoing learning and personal growth.

They know that whether they are ideal or not, they are also broken as human beings and are fully loved and appreciated in the midst of however they are! Our clients personal beliefs will be fully respected.

In the words of my hero, Mr. Rogers, I like you just the way you are. As an autistic therapist, I know what it's like to feel like the rest of the world is in a group text that you somehow missed.

I'm a very collaborative therapist with an informal style, so I want to work together with you to make therapy accessible and affirming.

I specialize in “Adulting” and Level 1 Autism Spectrum Disorder (Asperger’s), but am happy to work with anyone motivated to change their life. I also work with those who feel like who they aren't good enough, like they’re different or broken, and are tired of trying so hard. I also work with their family member’s and partners of individuals with ASD, who are feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, or unsure how to help. I also provide EMDR therapy.

I use an eclectic approach to working with my clients in a holistic way. It’s important for me to meet my clients where they are and figure out how we want to move forward together in our sessions. How we think about our challenges in life has a strong impact on how we respond to them.
