About Ana
Ana Crixell is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who focuses on practical help for people feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety. She uses straightforward conversation to help clients find clearer ways to cope and communicate. Her style is warm and collaborative, with an emphasis on real-life solutions.
She brings ten years of experience working with issues like relationship tension, workplace pressure, grief, and trauma. Sessions often focus on improving communication, managing anger, and building self-esteem.
Background and approach
Ana also supports people facing parenting and career challenges, and those adjusting to big life changes such as divorce or separation. Ana combines client-centered talk with cognitive behavioral techniques. That means she listens for what matters to the person and then helps identify thoughts and habits that keep problems going.
From there she helps people try small, practical steps to shift reactions and feel more in control. <br
Approaches that translate well to online care
Ana uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques that adapt well to remote sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following what matters most to the person, helping them feel understood and supported through change. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood and provides practical tools to test new ways of thinking and acting, which can be practiced between sessions.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Ana will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and the kinds of strategies they want to try. Together they decide whether to focus more on communication skills, thought-behavior experiments, or solution-focused steps and then adjust as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video is useful when visual cues matter, phone works when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and messaging helps people keep work brief or reflect between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep continuity when schedules change.
