About Ana

Her work focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and challenges with self-esteem. She also supports people navigating career decisions, life changes, and issues tied to family of origin. Ana helps with anger, post-traumatic stress, and questions about life purpose and self-love.

Ana uses a blend of methods to tailor sessions to each person. She draws on client-centered principles to follow a person's priorities and on cognitive behavioral techniques to look at thoughts and behaviors. She also uses EMDR for trauma-related concerns and solution-focused work to identify small practical steps.

Sessions may include traditional talk therapy and occasionally walking in nature as part of the work. Ana has particular experience supporting first-generation college concerns and young adult transitions. Her approach aims to be collaborative and grounded in everyday life.

People who choose her can expect clear, practical focus alongside space to process feelings.

How Ana's Approaches Work Online

Ana uses client-centered therapy to follow each person's goals and priorities. That approach focuses on listening closely, reflecting what matters to the client, and shaping sessions around their concerns.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence mood. CBT often involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying practical, achievable behavior changes to reduce symptoms of anxiety or depression.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Ana will work with each client to decide whether client-centered listening, CBT techniques, or EMDR for trauma seem most helpful. She tailors the mix based on goals, comfort, and how someone responds to initial sessions.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the profile does not list specific options. Online work can make scheduling easier and help therapy fit into a busy day. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, reduce travel time, and make it simpler to keep continuity across life changes.
