About Anna
Anna Victoria Baillio Bordelon brings a client-centered approach to help people navigate stress, grief, relationship strain, and life transitions. She is a licensed clinical social worker - LCSW - with decades of experience guiding people toward clearer goals and steadier daily routines. She aims to help clients build self-knowledge and stronger self-esteem.
Sessions often focus on clearer communication, practical problem solving, and identifying values that matter most to the person.
Background and approach
Anna mixes listening with direct, useful strategies so people can try changes between meetings. Her background spans long-term clinical social work and wellness coaching across relationship, parenting, career, and life-purpose concerns. Over 37 years she has supported people working through depression, anxiety, trauma and compassion fatigue.
She also addresses issues like codependency, isolation, and midlife questions. Anna commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness tools to shift unhelpful thoughts and ease stress. She also draws on client-centered techniques to keep sessions focused on each person’s goals and comforts, with occasional Jungian ideas for exploring deeper meaning.
Practical matters are part of her approach. Sessions can be arranged by phone, video, live chat, or text messaging to fit busy schedules. She works from Texas and provides services in English.
How Anna’s Approaches Work Online
Anna often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thought patterns. CBT focuses on practical skills to reduce anxiety, lift mood, and adjust reactions to stressful situations. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which keeps sessions focused on the person’s priorities through empathic listening and collaborative goal setting.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped in the past. From that conversation they will decide whether to emphasize CBT skills, a client-centered pace, mindfulness practices, or a blend of methods that fits the person’s needs.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video is useful when visual cues help the conversation. Phone sessions can fit a break at work or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text are helpful for brief check-ins, ongoing coaching, or when someone prefers typed communication. These options make it easier to schedule regular time for progress without extensive travel.
