About Anna
Anna VanEaton is a Tennessee Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 25 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and depression. Anna uses straightforward conversation and practical skills to help people who are feeling stuck after changes in work, relationships, or health.
She draws on several approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. Sessions emphasize clear goals, learning coping skills, and working through painful memories or patterns that get in the way of daily life.
Anna often helps people address related issues such as abandonment, caregiver stress, chronic pain or illness, body image, codependency, communication problems, divorce and separation, and addiction. She also works with concerns tied to aging and blended family dynamics. Conversations focus on what matters now and how to make small, practical changes.
Her way of working is direct and pragmatic. People identify what they want to change, practice new responses, and review progress together. EMDR may be used for trauma processing, while CBT and DBT skills are offered for anxiety, mood, and behavioral patterns.
Sessions are scheduled according to her calendar and she does not work Fridays or weekends. Because she does not offer text-based counseling, initial contact and ongoing sessions use the scheduling and session methods listed via the service's online options.
How her approaches shape online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice rigid thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety and feeling stuck after life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety. EMDR addresses distressing memories by pairing focused recall with bilateral stimulation to reduce the emotional charge of trauma recollections.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will work with the client to identify goals, try techniques from different models, and adjust methods based on what helps in session and between meetings. The aim is to find practical strategies that fit the client's needs and preferences rather than applying a single method from the start.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten commute time, and allow for more flexible scheduling. Some formats are better for skill practice without video, while others suit in-depth trauma work that benefits from face-to-face interaction. Check the platform's scheduling tools to see which session types are available and choose what best fits everyday life and treatment goals.
