About Anna
Anna Zakrocka is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with ten years of clinical experience. She blends mental health and physical-wellness perspectives to help people make tangible changes. Her background includes graduate work in counseling and exercise physiology as well as a PhD in holistic health completed in 2023.
She tends to keep sessions practical and focused. Anna uses straightforward conversation, goal-setting, and skill-building to address day-to-day struggles.
Background and approach
People come to her for help with anxiety, stress, attention difficulties such as ADHD, mood shifts, and challenges that follow trauma or loss. Her work draws on several evidence-informed approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors.
Client-Centered methods emphasize the person’s own goals and pacing. Emotionally-Focused Therapy supports clearer communication about feelings in close relationships. Anna also pays attention to physical well-being and movement when it fits a person’s goals, reflecting her training in exercise physiology and holistic health.
Sessions may include mindfulness practices to manage stress and build present-moment focus. She supports people dealing with relationship concerns, identity questions including LGBT and gender dysphoria topics, eating and body-image issues, compulsive behaviors, and work or parenting stress. Anna aims to collaborate on clear steps people can try between sessions to see what helps.
Clients can expect a direct but warm style, with practical strategies, symptom-focused tools, and space to talk through difficult emotions.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s goals and values. In sessions Anna listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps people set steps that feel doable for them. This approach helps when someone needs guidance that fits their life and pace.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. Online sessions often include simple worksheets, thought records, and homework to test new ways of acting. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood, attention challenges, and changing unhelpful habits.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name and shift hard emotions in relationships. In an online setting this can mean working on clearer emotional expression, repairing misunderstandings, and building stronger connection skills.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and try methods that match the client’s needs and preferences. If something isn’t working, they will adjust the plan collaboratively.
Online therapy offers a range of practical options: video calls for face-to-face interaction, phone sessions when bandwidth or camera use is limited, live chat for brief check-ins, and text-based messaging for ongoing support between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, have shorter check-ins, or access consistent help from different locations.
