About Anna
Anna earned a Master of Science in Counseling from Northwestern State University of Louisiana and practiced as a teacher before becoming a counselor. She has three years of counseling experience working with people who report anxiety, stress, depression, and post-traumatic stress. Her background in education informs a straightforward style that focuses on practical skills.
In sessions she uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thinking patterns and behaviors that affect mood. She helps clients learn coping skills and offers concrete strategies to challenge unhelpful thoughts. She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term goals and track small, doable changes.
Anna strives to keep her personal beliefs out of the counseling relationship so clients can speak freely. She works to create a space where people can try new habits and notice what works. If you want a therapist who emphasizes plain talk and step-by-step tools, Anna may be a good match.
She practices in Mississippi and conducts sessions in English. To begin, follow the site's Start Therapy process and complete the short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How CBT and Solution-Focused Work Online
Anna uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot thoughts and behaviors that feed anger, anxiety, or low mood. CBT sessions focus on identifying specific thinking patterns, trying small behavior changes, and practicing new coping skills until they feel easier to use.She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term, achievable goals. That approach breaks problems into manageable steps and tracks progress session by session, which can be helpful when anger or stress feels overwhelming.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Anna will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that match their needs and goals. She checks in about what is helping and adjusts the plan so it fits the client's preferences and life circumstances.
Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy day. Online work can reduce commuting and make it simpler to keep regular appointments. If you want to confirm which session formats are offered, check the booking details before scheduling so you know the options available for your situation.
