Dr. Annette Solomon, MI Psychologist 6301013313

Dr. Annette Solomon greets people with a clear focus on practical help. She recognizes how hard it is to ask for support and aims to make the first steps easier. Her approach is warm and strength-based, and she speaks plainly about coping with stress, loss, addiction, anxiety, and changes that come with illness.

Dr. Solomon earned a doctorate in clinical psychology from Wright State University School of Professional Psychology and holds the credential MI Psychologist 6301013313. She has 21 years of experience working in clinical and medical settings and has supported people facing chronic medical conditions and trauma. Her background includes work with diverse medical teams and some experience with Veteran care.

In sessions she uses simple, hands-on methods. Conversations focus on clear goals and small steps that fit everyday life. She draws from client-centered methods to listen closely, and from cognitive behavioral techniques to address thinking and behavior patterns.

Motivational interviewing is part of her toolkit to help people find reasons and motivation to change. Mindfulness and existential ideas are used when questions about meaning, values, or coping with serious illness come up. Plans are written together so people know what to try between visits.

Dr. Solomon works with a wide range of concerns including addiction, grief, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, caregiving stress, chronic pain and illness, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. She encourages straightforward conversations about goals and practical steps toward feeling more in control.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience without judgment. It helps people feel heard and clarify their own goals in the face of illness, loss, or life change.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood and daily routines. It offers practical exercises to improve sleep, manage anxiety, reduce impulsivity, and tackle patterns that keep problems going.

Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change. It can be useful with addictions, health behavior changes, or when making big life adjustments related to illness or caregiving.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That process can include trying techniques and adjusting the plan based on what helps most.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, since options are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find that remote work helps them maintain continuity of care during medical treatment or caregiving responsibilities.
