About Anna

Anna Van Fleet is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting concerns, and major life changes. She uses straightforward, practical conversations to help clients name problems and find workable steps forward. Her tone is encouraging and down-to-earth for parents and caregivers looking for clear support.

Anna believes each person knows their life best and builds on those strengths. She listens carefully, asks concrete questions, and offers tools that match what a person needs right now.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on simple strategies to reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning. Her training includes therapies that help change unhelpful thoughts and heal from painful memories. She also draws on approaches that improve communication and strengthen emotional connection.

These methods are used as suits the situation rather than forcing a single plan. Anna has nine years of professional experience, including teletherapy work. She works with people across a range of mood and anxiety concerns, panic attacks, trauma responses, and struggles with isolation or low self-esteem.

She also addresses communication problems, control issues, forgiveness, and questions about life purpose. People who choose Anna can expect steady, practical guidance and a collaborative pace. She helps clients move from stuck patterns to clearer choices, one conversation at a time.

How Anna’s approaches work online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding where a person is coming from, then using their own strengths to guide change. It helps people feel heard and supported while they figure out next steps.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to shift them. It is useful for anxiety, mood difficulties, and everyday stress management.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is an approach used to process distressing memories and reduce their emotional hold. When appropriate, it can be part of helping people move past trauma-related symptoms.

Finding the right fit is part of the process. Anna works together with clients to decide which methods match their needs, goals, and comfort level. She adjusts the plan over time based on what helps most.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. That makes it easier to fit regular sessions into busy family schedules or to continue work from home. These options let people try different formats and pick what feels most practical for their life.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

EMDR

A structured protocol used with distressing memories, pairing recall with guided attention tasks. Some therapists adapt it for video sessions; whether that fits is worth asking about directly.
