Background and approach

Her approach centers on skills you can use between sessions. She and the client shape a plan together that fits the person’s needs and goals. Sessions often include simple exercises, goal-setting, and techniques to reduce anxiety in daily moments.

Ana aims to treat each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. She explains options clearly and adjusts the pace based on how someone is coping. People are encouraged to take small steps toward change rather than trying to fix everything at once.

Working with Ana is collaborative and practical. She helps clients notice patterns, try new behaviors, and track progress. The goal is to make life feel a bit easier and more connected to what matters most.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Ana lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Approaches Ana names

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist lists and does not check training records.

Online support

Using CBT online to manage stress and life changes

Ana uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a hands-on approach that connects thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT involves noticing unhelpful thinking patterns, testing them with small experiments, and practicing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms.

In sessions focused on grief and life transitions, Ana helps people name what they are feeling and set short-term goals to regain routine and purpose. These conversations often include simple coping strategies and activities to rebuild confidence and daily structure.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Ana works with each person to identify what feels most useful and practical. She adjusts techniques and pacing based on individual goals, comfort, and feedback so the plan fits real life.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people see facial cues and practice skills together. Phone sessions work well when video would be difficult or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for short check-ins, quick coping tips, or when someone prefers typed conversation. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other busy schedules.
