About Anna

Anna Evans is a licensed clinician who supports people facing depression, anxiety, grief, substance use, and sleep problems. She has 24 years of experience and helps with chronic illness, caregiver stress, and major life changes like relationship loss. Anna also brings experience supporting first responders and other mental health providers.

She uses practical, person-focused methods in sessions. Her work draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person’s priorities. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors. Motivational interviewing helps people find their own reasons for change, and trauma-focused work guides recovery after hurtful experiences.

In sessions Anna listens closely and helps set clear goals. She offers tools for managing sleep, cravings, stress, and mood. Conversations include problem-focused strategies and space to reflect on meaning and purpose.

Her background includes certificates in grief work, insomnia, and cognitive behavioral therapy in addition to licensure as an LCPC and an LPC. Those credentials are held in Illinois and Wisconsin and support her clinical work.

People often come for short-term help with a specific problem or for longer work on life direction and resilience. She encourages practical steps between sessions and checks progress as goals change.

How her approaches work for online therapy

Anna uses Client-Centered Therapy to focus on each person's own goals and priorities. This approach means the therapist follows what matters most to the client and offers supportive listening and reflection to help people clarify next steps.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT offers concrete techniques for sleep problems, anxiety, depression, and behavior change that translate well to remote sessions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Anna will talk with clients about what feels most helpful, try methods that match the concerns, and adjust plans based on progress and preferences.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also supports continuing care after disruptive events like illness or relocation, and it makes skill-based practices such as sleep hygiene and cognitive exercises easy to review together.
