About Annah

Annah Courson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Alabama who helps people facing stress, anxiety, and relationship concerns. She encourages clients to name what matters to them and to use their own strengths as a path forward. Annah’s approach is direct and respectful, aimed at comfortable, practical steps rather than complicated jargon.

She leans on client-centered work that puts each person's priorities first. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy ideas are used to spot unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or unsure about change.

Annah has 23 years of experience in counseling. Over that time she has supported people with trauma and abuse, self-esteem and confidence, addiction issues, and intimacy-related concerns. She also addresses sleep problems, career stress, and the strain of life transitions.

Her practice includes focused help for things like panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, postpartum depression, seasonal affective disorder, and social anxiety. She also works with people navigating LGBT-related concerns and compassion fatigue.

Sessions tend to be practical and goal-oriented. Annah invites clients to try small experiments between meetings and to notice what changes. If you want straightforward guidance and a therapist who listens first, her style is aimed at helping you move forward.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead. In practice this means the therapist reflects what you say, asks questions to clarify your goals, and helps you decide what to work on next. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior. It teaches simple skills to test unhelpful thoughts and to try new behaviors for anxiety, panic, or low mood.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Annah will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then try methods that match those needs. If something does not fit, she will adjust the plan together with the client.

Confirm the current session options before booking since formats were not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing sessions during lunch breaks or between responsibilities. It can also support shorter check-ins when you need quick troubleshooting, or more regular meetings when tackling intense stressors. Ask about available session formats when you schedule to find what matches your routine and comfort.
