About Anedtra

Anedtra Haynes-Thompson is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Oklahoma with 14 years of clinical experience. She helps people who struggle with relationship issues, trauma and abuse, anger, low motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. She also works with anxiety, stress, depression, addiction concerns, and parenting-related strain.

Her approach centers on listening and supporting clear, practical steps. She uses methods drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new ways of responding. Sessions focus on skills people can use between meetings as well as talking through difficult memories or current conflicts.

Anedtra pays attention to attachment and how early relationships affect current connections. That perspective often helps when people report commitment worries, codependency, or problems with closeness. She also helps clients manage anger, communication problems, and the stress that comes from caregiving or major life changes.

People meet with her to work on practical goals like improving communication, coping with grief, addressing avoidance, or increasing motivation. She draws from client-centered ideas to keep conversations grounded in the person’s own priorities. Over time she and the client track small changes and adjust strategies as needed.

Sessions are offered in English and Anedtra accepts international clients. To begin, clients follow the site steps to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment. The counselor’s fee varies with location and uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How her approaches work for online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people identify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when anxiety or fear shows up. It focuses on noticing thoughts without getting stuck and building actions that align with personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches techniques to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns. It is often used for anxiety, avoidance, and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to relationship patterns and how early connections shape current reactions; this can be useful for commitment concerns, codependency, and intimacy-related issues.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options, try methods that suit the client’s needs and preferences, and adjust plans based on what works in practice. Clients and the counselor check in on progress and refine the focus over time.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a brief update is needed. It also makes it possible for international clients to connect from different time zones. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to the online setting so skills carry into everyday life.
