About Anna
Anna Oglesby is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Mississippi. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, grief, trauma and parenting concerns. She also supports people facing relationship strain, low self-esteem, ADHD-related challenges, compassion fatigue, and LGBT-related issues. Anna aims to make the first steps toward help feel clear and manageable.
Anna uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at thought patterns and behaviors that influence mood. She helps clients identify unhelpful thinking and build practical coping skills. She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear goals and map small steps that move a person forward.
Before becoming a counselor she earned a Master of Science in Counseling from Northwestern State University of Louisiana and worked as a teacher for several years. She has three years of counseling experience and brings that classroom background into a straightforward, down-to-earth style.
In sessions she emphasizes a nonjudgmental approach and keeps her personal beliefs out of the counseling relationship. Conversations focus on what matters to the client and on realistic, actionable changes. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes.
Looking into counseling is an important decision, and Anna aims to help people feel comfortable and understood from the start. If you are considering therapy, she invites you to take the next step and learn whether her way of working feels like a fit.
How Anna Uses CBT and Solution-Focused Work Online
Anna uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice the thoughts and behaviors that affect mood. CBT focuses on practical exercises and experiments you can try between sessions to reduce anxiety, manage depression, or change unhelpful reactions. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on setting small, concrete goals and identifying what is already working so progress feels manageable.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Anna will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and adjust the focus over time. Together you decide whether to concentrate on building coping skills, setting short-term goals, or using both approaches side by side.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats available before booking so you know what to expect. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow for brief check-ins when a full in-person visit would be difficult. These practical benefits often help people maintain consistency while working toward their goals.
