Meet The Host: Licensed Clinical Social Worker & Texas Based Therapist, Anne Chester 

Ever wondered what happens when life's path takes an unexpected turn? Meet Anne Chester, a licensed clinical social worker who discovered her true calling not in the classroom, but on the playground. After realizing that traditional teaching wasn't her forte, Anne found herself drawn to helping children and families navigate conflicts—a revelation that led her to Washington University's prestigious social work program and eventually to founding her own therapy practice in 2004.

With a compassionate approach grounded in systems theory, Anne specializes in guiding women through life's most challenging transitions—from the intense demands of motherhood to the emotional complexity of an empty nest. She brings a refreshing blend of warmth and straightforward advice to her sessions, believing that sometimes all we need is a neutral perspective when we "just can't see a way out" of our struggles. Her clients' enthusiastic requests for more accessible resources sparked the creation of this very podcast.

When she's not helping Texan women overcome anxiety, depression, and trauma, Anne cherishes time with her husband, two children, and beloved pets. She's also developed a passion for making homemade jam from her own secret recipes—proving that healers need creative outlets too. The launch of "Ask Anne Chester™: Therapy Talks" represents her commitment to expanding mental health resources beyond the therapy room. Ready to discover if Anne's approach might be right for you? Schedule a free 15-minute consultation through her website or by phone, because as Anne firmly believes, whatever you're going through, "it doesn't have to be that way."
