About Anna
Anna Sage is a licensed professional counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, and ADHD. She practices as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Washington and aims to make conversations feel straightforward and manageable. Anna writes plainly and listens closely so people can start making changes that matter.
She takes a practical, person-focused approach in sessions. Anna uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow a person’s lead and build trust.
Background and approach
She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach emotion regulation and coping skills. Anna has four years of clinical experience and began her path in peer support before moving into counseling. That background shaped her respect for lived experience and for small, steady steps toward change.
She often blends skill-building with space to talk about what feels most urgent. Sessions focus on clear goals and usable tools. Anna helps people break larger problems into manageable tasks, practice new skills between meetings, and track progress.
She also offers guidance for specific concerns like hoarding, postpartum depression, seasonal affective disorder, hospice and end-of-life issues, and family conflict. People who prefer straightforward language and practical strategies tend to find her style helpful. Anna emphasizes collaboration and teaches coping techniques that can be used outside of sessions.
Her aim is to make therapy feel doable and relevant to everyday life.
How her approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client’s lead to build trust and clarity. Online sessions let the person guide the agenda while the therapist mirrors concerns and priorities to help them feel heard.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is about spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing different actions. In remote sessions, that work becomes a mix of discussion and concrete homework - simple exercises to try between meetings and review later.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy teaches practical skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships. Skill coaching by video or chat can make those practices easier to try in daily life.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk about goals and preferences, try methods that fit, and adjust based on what helps most. Clients and the therapist decide together which tools to keep using.
Online therapy offers flexibility for different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction and screen-sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief updates, skill practice, or when typing feels easier than talking. These options make regular care easier to fit into a busy life.
