Clients should know that I believe therapy works best when it is built on trust, honesty, and collaboration. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and supported while we work together toward meaningful change. As a counselor and Navy veteran, I value integrity, perseverance, and service to others. I also respect the role that personal values and faith can play in someone’s life and am comfortable incorporating those perspectives into counseling when it is important to the client.

Anna Thyberg

Therapist

Virtual • Tennessee


Hi, I’m Anna. I believe mental health is one of the most universal—and most human—experiences we share. Everyone deserves the opportunity to feel grounded, confident, and at peace. My passion for this work comes from seeing how transformative therapy can be when people are given the space and support to truly understand themselves.

With over five years of experience in the treatment field, including three years as a Clinical Director, I specialize in substance use, acute mental health, and life transitions. I work with adults navigating stress, uncertainty, and major turning points, helping them gain insight and move toward stability and self-awareness.

Before becoming a therapist, I worked in the business world, which taught me the value of clear communication, structure, and solution-oriented thinking. I bring those same principles into therapy—blending empathy with practicality to help you take achievable steps toward a life that feels more stable and fulfilling.

Elaina Arriondo

Therapist

Virtual • Tennessee


I’m Elaina, a bicultural therapist whose own lived experiences shape how I sit with others. Many of my clients carry complex or childhood trauma layered with ADHD, autism, anxiety, or depression. They’re often the deep feelers and deep thinkers—the ones who’ve been told they’re “too much.”

I work with individuals and couples navigating relationship struggles, grief, affairs, identity shifts, and life transitions. I also enjoy working with military families, veterans, LGBTQ+ folks, and people from diverse cultural backgrounds who know that healing doesn’t look the same for everyone. My style is warm and human, with steady empathy and a willingness to challenge when it supports growth.
