Recent reviews
Dr. Love is amazing. She helped me in so many areas in my life (self image, family relationships, romantic relationships, positive mindset and depression after job loss) that helped improve my mindset and close relationships. I feel more confident and pulled out of the dark place I was in but also equipped with strategies to better manage my emotions and relationships in the future. You definitely have to bring a willing mindset to change how you think and be ready to open up but she does an amazing job helping you along the way.
More about Annette

Greetings,
My name is Dr. Annette Love. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor currently licensed in California, Nevada, Illinois, and previously Washington DC. My educational background consists of a Bachelor's degree in psychology, a Masters degree in professional counseling, and a Doctor of Education in counseling psychology. My greatest asset alongside formal education, is life experience.
I’ve worked with a variety of clientele-it is therefore very difficult to surprise me. I consider a few of my areas of expertise anxiety, depression, changing harmful thought patterns, and grief and loss. Overall my experience in behavioral/mental health started in 2003 (17 years).
If you're wondering how we may work together, here's the type of client I work best with:
An ideal client comes just as they are. They arrive with an expectation that help and recovery is near. They’re open to guidance, somewhat like having a copilot, navigating the peaks and valleys of mental illness, addiction or just life. Their goal is to get better, and they are willing to work towards this. This client wants someone positive, maybe even comical at times, yet knowledgeable and as passionate about them getting better as they are. Although at times life doesn’t seem fair, they’re willing to work through these struggles with support.
You've taken the first step to feeling better-kudos to you. I would be happy to learn how I can help you further.
Until we meet, be well.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

We are quite early in our work together, but Dr. Love has quickly had an impact on my life. I'm struggling with personal, parenting and professional issues and everything is a bit of a mess - she has helped me to focus on the most important work and helped me gain insights as quickly as the first session. I am confident I have a knowledgeable and empathetic ally in my corner!
