About BreAnna
BreAnna Simanton is a licensed mental health counselor in Florida with 13 years of professional experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, attention challenges, trauma and self-esteem struggles.

She creates a warm, nonjudgmental space where people can say what they’re really feeling. Sessions are collaborative - she listens first, then helps build simple goals and coping strategies.
Background and approach
The work often includes breaking problems into small steps people can try between sessions. BreAnna has worked with perinatal mood and anxiety concerns, including postpartum depression, and with trauma and abuse recovery. She draws on approaches that are evidence-based and aimed at reducing symptoms and increasing daily functioning.
The focus is on realistic tools and steady progress. People who come to her often want clearer routines, better focus, or relief from persistent worry. She also supports those wanting to rebuild confidence after difficult experiences.
Conversations are practical, with an emphasis on what to try next. Her background includes over a decade of clinical work in Florida. That experience informs how she tailors plans to each person’s life and schedule.
BreAnna frames therapy as a team effort toward tangible change.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions help
BreAnna uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical steps people can use right away. One common approach emphasizes skill-building for anxiety and mood regulation - teaching breathing, grounding, and planning tools that reduce worry and lift mood in everyday situations. These skills help with panic moments and persistent low mood.Another approach centers on trauma recovery and processing. This method helps people make sense of painful events, reduce the intensity of upsetting memories, and regain a sense of safety and control in daily life. It often includes pacing the work and adding stabilizing strategies first.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit the person’s needs, and adjust the plan over time. Clients help shape which techniques are kept or changed so the work stays practical and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people have conversations that feel close to in-person sessions. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use video. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for short check-ins, quick support between sessions, or for people who express themselves better in writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives.
