About Anna

Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Washington with four years of clinical experience, Anna Sage helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, family concerns, grief, and ADHD. She also focuses on hoarding, hospice and end-of-life counseling, postpartum depression, and seasonal affective disorder. Sessions are conducted in English. Anna began working in mental health as a peer specialist and now practices as a counselor in Washington.

Anna uses a mix of practical techniques. She draws from client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to address symptoms and everyday problems. In sessions she listens first, then works with people to set clear, achievable goals. Treatment often includes skill-building, behavior changes, and problem-focused talking.

Her background includes direct work with adults facing substance use and mental health challenges. That experience informs how she talks about motivation, relapse prevention, and coping with stress. She aims to reduce stigma around seeking help and to make the path into counseling straightforward.

Anna describes therapy as a collaborative process. People can expect practical tools for anxiety, routines for seasonal mood changes, and strategies for managing ADHD and cravings. She also provides support around grief and the emotional needs that come with end-of-life care.

Payment varies with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are arranged after completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first meeting via the site.

How Anna uses common approaches in online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's experience. In practice this means the counselor reflects what someone says and helps them set their own goals. It is useful for people who need to feel heard while they sort out next steps.

CBT - cognitive behavioral therapy - looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. In online work this often means identifying unhelpful thought patterns and practicing new skills between sessions. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, mood issues, and behavior change like reducing substance use.

DBT - dialectical behavior therapy - emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Online sessions can teach concrete DBT skills such as grounding, paced breathing, and structured problem-solving for intense moments.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will help figure out which methods best match a person's needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is made together and can be adjusted over time.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make fitting therapy into a regular schedule easier, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. These practical benefits help people use therapy more consistently while they try different strategies.
