About Anna
Anna uses a practical, people-centered style in sessions. She focuses on what someone wants to change, what motivates them, and small steps that lead to better balance. Conversations include skill building, clear goal setting, and learning ways to manage negative thinking and overwhelming emotions.
Her approach draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, and mindfulness. She also uses elements from emotionally-focused work and Imago relationship ideas when communication or connection are central issues. Psychoeducation and a mind-body-spirit perspective appear in session when helpful.
Anna brings 26 years of clinical experience in Florida as a licensed mental health counselor. She aims to make therapy straightforward and focused on daily life - short practical tools as well as deeper patterns when needed. Sessions tend to be conversational and action-oriented, with room to reflect and practice new ways of coping.
People who want concrete strategies for stress, clearer communication, or help moving through loss may find her style direct and supportive. She invites prospective clients to consider goals, try some tools, and adjust the plan as progress is made.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and building a trusting conversation. It helps people clarify goals and feel heard while working through stress, relationships, or life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical steps to change negative thinking and unhelpful behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and changing patterns that interfere with daily life.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening emotional regulation. It can help with anger, impulsive behaviors, and overwhelming stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help assess needs, try methods that fit goals, and adjust techniques based on progress. This is a collaborative process that mixes listening with concrete skills practice.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They can also allow people to practice skills from home, schedule appointments around work, and keep continuity of care if life gets hectic.
