Anedtra Haynes-Thompson, LPC

Anedtra Haynes-Thompson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Oklahoma. She focuses on thoughts and everyday habits alongside relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem, motivation, and stress. She emphasizes a calm, nonjudgmental atmosphere that helps people speak openly about what they're thinking and feeling.

With 14 years of professional experience, she draws on several therapeutic approaches to meet each person's needs. Sessions center on practical steps clients can try between meetings. That can mean learning new ways to respond to difficult feelings, testing small behavior changes, or practicing different ways to speak up in conversations.

Clients can expect sessions that aim to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and build workable habits. Anedtra uses methods that include acceptance and commitment ideas, cognitive behavioral strategies, and client-centered listening to guide the work. She also brings attachment and dialectical behavior ideas into treatment when they fit the situation.

Her areas of focus include anxiety, depression, coping with life changes, grief, compassion fatigue, ADHD, addictions, intimacy-related issues, parenting concerns, and career-related stress. She also addresses more specific topics such as abandonment, attachment issues, blended family dynamics, body image, and caregiver stress.

People who reach out will be invited to set goals and try short, concrete steps between sessions. The approach is collaborative and practical, aimed at helping clients notice small shifts in thought and habit that add up over time.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts without getting stuck in them and choosing actions that match personal values. It can help with anxiety, low motivation, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and gives concrete tools to test new ways of thinking and acting. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and habit change. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to relationship patterns and emotional bonds, helping people understand how past connections influence present interactions and intimacy-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to match methods to goals, needs, and personal preferences. That may mean starting with one approach and adding techniques from others as progress is made.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow a shorter check-in when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people use methods like ACT or CBT in real time while they practice changes in their everyday routines.
