About Anna
Anna Patterson is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida. She focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and life transitions. Her style is warm and interactive, and she aims to create a respectful space where clients feel heard.
She uses an integrative approach, drawing on different methods to match each person's needs. That can include Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how past relationships affect present feelings, cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and client-centered work to follow the client's own pace and priorities.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative and aim to be practical. Anna has 11 years of clinical experience and works with a broad range of concerns such as trauma and abuse, eating challenges, anger, self-esteem, career stress, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. She also focuses on aging and geriatric issues, attachment issues, forgiveness, guilt and shame, life purpose, midlife transitions, mood disorders, and women's issues.
In sessions she listens first, then helps people set small, realistic goals. Therapy may include skill practice, reflective conversation, and exploring past patterns that keep repeating. Her aim is to help clients develop clearer coping strategies and stronger emotional awareness.
Anna offers sessions in English and provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. She works with people across Florida and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Online support
How her approaches guide online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current emotions and relationship patterns, helping people recognize and change repeated cycles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing new skills to reduce anxiety and low mood. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and following the client's lead so work moves at a comfortable pace and reflects personal goals.Finding the right approach is part of the process. She works together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That might mean starting with supportive, client-centered sessions and adding CBT tools or attachment-focused work as clarity grows. The collaboration helps tailor the plan as progress unfolds.
Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues during deeper conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, skill practice, or when someone needs short, frequent support. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping continuity of care.
