Anedtra Haynes-Thompson, LPC

Anedtra Haynes-Thompson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma with 14 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people facing relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, anger, low motivation, and self-esteem concerns. Her style aims to make starting therapy feel like a manageable next step rather than an overwhelming leap.

She creates an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about thoughts and feelings honestly. Sessions emphasize practical steps and clear goals so people leave with tools they can use between meetings. Anedtra works at a pace set by each person, balancing immediate coping skills with longer-term change.

Her approach draws on evidence-informed methods that include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. She adapts these approaches to fit concerns such as anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, ADHD, and intimacy-related issues.

Over her career she has supported people managing life transitions, parenting stress, career questions, and compassion fatigue. She also works with those dealing with abandonment, attachment struggles, body image, codependency, and communication or commitment issues. Her work includes attention to aging and caregiver stress as well.

Beginning therapy involves a few clear steps: selecting the Start Therapy button, completing a short matching questionnaire, and scheduling sessions according to therapist availability. She encourages clients to view therapy as a collaborative process focused on real changes for daily life.

How therapeutic approaches guide online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to values-based actions. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and motivation struggles. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current patterns and helps people develop more secure ways of relating to others and themselves.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, and then tailor techniques collaboratively. Clients and therapist decide together which methods fit best as the work unfolds.

Confirm the available session options before booking so you know how this practice currently delivers care. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Therapists can guide practice exercises, teach skills like mindfulness or grounding, and help track progress between meetings to support everyday changes.
