About Anna

Background and approach
She holds a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Texas Wesleyan, a Master of Science in Exercise Physiology from the University of Texas at Arlington, and completed a PhD in Holistic Health in December 2023.
Her background blends traditional counseling training with holistic perspectives, and she has completed trauma-focused coursework including a Trauma Certification through the Trauma Care Institute and training in trauma-informed yoga and Baptiste-style yoga. Her practice emphasizes helping people identify practical strategies and methods to improve overall wellbeing, with a strong interest in integrating mental and physical health.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a frequently used model in her work, alongside client-centered and emotionally-focused techniques and mindfulness-based practices. She offers care for a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues, trauma and abuse, addiction, and ADHD, as well as focused topics such as attachment, body image, gender dysphoria, and eating-related issues.
Anna approaches therapy with a collaborative spirit, aiming to help clients explore what methods suit their goals and life circumstances. She provides services in English and accepts international clients, offering flexible session formats to fit different schedules and needs.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Anna commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered methods in her online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, and difficulties with sleep or impulsivity. Client-centered therapy places emphasis on the client's perspective, using empathy and reflective listening to support self-directed growth and stronger self-esteem.She also integrates emotionally-focused principles when relationships or attachment concerns are central, which helps people explore and reshape emotional patterns that affect intimacy and connection. These approaches can be combined with mindfulness practices to support stress management and present-moment coping skills.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative stance helps shape a plan that adjusts as progress and life circumstances evolve.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into varied schedules and time zones. These options allow licensed professionals to deliver consistent care while accommodating clients who need adaptable formats for ongoing work.
