About Anna
Anna Zakrocka is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with ten years of clinical experience. She combines background in counseling and exercise physiology to help people notice what is getting in the way of better sleep, lower stress, and clearer daily routine. Anna writes plainly and focuses on practical steps clients can try between sessions.
Her approach blends talking work with skill practice. She often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help change unhelpful thoughts and routines that interfere with rest. She also draws on client-centered and emotionally-focused ideas to explore relationships and emotional patterns that affect mood and sleep.
Anna’s training includes a PhD in holistic health completed in 2023 and a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Texas Wesleyan. She also holds a Master of Science in Exercise Physiology from the University of Texas at Arlington. These studies inform a whole-person view of sleep, movement, and stress.
In sessions she aims to make therapy something people can fit into busy lives. Expect clear goals, practical strategies, and room to talk about shame, trauma, or relationship strain without jargon. She works with issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, addictions, and sleep problems.
Those who contact her usually start by describing current struggles and what they'd like to change. Anna helps set short-term targets and suggests small steps to try between meetings. She welcomes people who want concrete skills alongside compassionate listening.
How Anna’s approaches translate to online therapy
The practice often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in clear, practical ways. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to improve sleep and reduce anxiety. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the client’s own goals and pacing, giving space for people to describe what feels most urgent to them.These methods are a starting point rather than a fixed plan. The therapist will work together with the client to pick the best fit based on needs, goals, and preferences. That means reviewing what has helped before, trying a few strategies, and adjusting as progress or barriers appear.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when life is hectic. It can also let people try skills at home between meetings and bring real examples from daily routines into conversation. Licensed professionals can help tailor pace and techniques so work on sleep, stress, or relationships fits everyday life.
