About Anedtra

Anedtra Haynes-Thompson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma with 14 years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical, down-to-earth help for people facing relationship strain, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, anxiety, stress, and addiction. She encourages straightforward conversations and keeps sessions focused on what matters most to each person.

She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through painful memories and current struggles. Sessions aim to identify unhelpful patterns and build small, doable changes that fit everyday life. That might mean working on communication, managing intense emotions, or rebuilding confidence after loss.

Anedtra uses several evidence-informed approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Attachment-Based ideas. She adapts those methods to each person’s situation and goals rather than following a single script.

People seeking help with parenting strain, career transitions, grief, compassion fatigue, ADHD, or coping with life changes and disasters will find practical skills and steady support. She also addresses issues like abandonment, codependency, body image, and blended family stress.

Starting therapy is described as a process that takes courage, and Anedtra works to make that first step easier. She invites clients to begin at a pace that feels manageable and to shape therapy around their priorities.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, low motivation, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical steps to change them; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people build healthier ways of relating and communicating.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Anedtra will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then suggest methods that fit those needs. The plan can change as progress is made so the approach stays practical and relevant.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the exact session formats available before booking. Many people find online therapy helps fit care into busy days and reduces travel time. Online sessions can allow for shorter check-ins, easier scheduling around work or caregiving, and continued support when life circumstances change. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and attachment-focused work to an online setting so the focus stays on useful skills and clearer relationships.
