01About Anna
Anna Ward Martin is a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Georgia with 12 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family concerns, and depression. She uses straightforward, practical methods to help people manage symptoms and move toward goals.
Her work centers on listening first. She helps people notice strengths they already have and build on them. Sessions are collaborative and goal-focused, so progress is tracked in ways that feel meaningful to each person.
Background and approach
Anna often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of responding. She blends this with dialectical behavior approaches to teach emotion regulation and coping skills when feelings feel overwhelming. Mindfulness practices and narrative work help people find perspective and reconnect with what matters to them.
People contact her about panic attacks, mood disorders, communication problems, guilt and shame, control issues, and questions about life purpose and self-love. She also supports people working through forgiveness and improving how they relate to others. Therapy with Anna typically happens by phone or video.
She explains steps clearly and offers practical tools to use between sessions. The aim is steady, usable change rather than quick fixes.

How Anna’s Approaches Work Online
Anna combines cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior approaches to give practical tools people can use between sessions. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors and tests small changes to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Dialectical behavior approaches teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills to help when feelings feel overwhelming.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before, then suggest techniques to try. Sessions are collaborative so methods are adjusted over time based on what feels most useful for each person.
Online work is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or better when bandwidth is limited. Messaging and live chat let people send updates or brief reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and keep momentum between meetings.
