Background and approach
Expect to name difficult feelings, try new strategies, and practice boundaries that fit your life. The work can feel hard, but it also makes room for growth and increased confidence. Her approach is personalized.
Anna draws from cognitive behavioral methods, acceptance-based ideas, and client-centered principles to shape each plan. That means sessions focus on real-life problems, manageable skills, and the client’s values and goals. She also uses mindfulness and elements from dialectical and existential approaches when helpful.
Anna has experience with addiction, trauma and abuse, narcissistic and toxic relationship patterns, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and chronic illness concerns. She supports people dealing with career strain, intimacy questions, and blended family stress. Anger is one area she regularly addresses, helping people notice triggers and practice healthier responses.
She sees people across Tennessee and accepts international clients. Sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

How Anna's Approaches Work Online
Anna uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values instead of getting stuck. It can be useful for anxiety, avoidance, and making changes that matter. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that feed problems, then testing and changing them with practical exercises useful for depression, anxiety, and anger.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Anna will talk with each person about their goals and try methods together to see what helps. The plan evolves based on how a person responds and what fits their daily life, so therapy remains a team effort rather than a fixed script.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and practicing skills in-session. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for quick coaching, check-ins between sessions, and ongoing skill practice that fits a busy schedule. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, or travel commitments while keeping care consistent and accessible.
