About Anedtra
Anedtra Haynes-Thompson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma. She brings 14 years of experience to her practice and focuses on helping people navigate relationship struggles, trauma, stress, anxiety, and issues with self-esteem. She frames therapy as a collaborative process and encourages the courage it takes to begin seeking support.
Her approach centers on building an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about difficult feelings and life events. She uses practical methods that help people identify unhelpful patterns and try new ways of coping. Sessions often include skills practice and gentle reflection to help clients make small changes that add up over time.
Anedtra draws on several evidence-informed approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. She adapts these methods to each person's situation and goals rather than using one fixed method for everyone. This flexibility helps with concerns like grief, addiction, codependency, and coping with life transitions.
She also supports people dealing with anger, career stress, parenting strain, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and intimacy-related challenges. Her work includes helping with abandonment, attachment issues, blended family stress, and body image concerns. The emphasis is on clear steps clients can try between sessions.
To begin, interested people complete a short questionnaire and schedule sessions based on the therapist's availability. The therapist notes therapy uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and she accepts clients from outside the United States.
How therapeutic approaches guide online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on values and small actions that move someone toward what matters, which can help with anxiety, depression, and codependency. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, low mood, and anger management. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and communication; it can help people understand patterns around intimacy, abandonment, and trust.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and recommend methods that fit each person's needs. This is a joint process where the client and therapist try different tools and adjust based on what helps most.
