Anna Oglesby

Anna Oglesby is a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Mississippi who brings a warm, nonjudgmental approach to therapy. She earned a master’s degree in counseling from Northwestern State University of Louisiana in 2013 and spent several years working as a teacher before beginning her counseling career.

Anna uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a practical method that helps identify thoughts and behaviors that influence emotions. After recognizing those patterns, she works with clients to build coping skills and to challenge unhelpful thinking.

Her work has included supporting people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress, among other concerns. She also addresses a range of areas including anger management, self-esteem, coping with life changes, LGBT issues, relationship and family conflicts, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.

Anna aims to create a comfortable space where clients can share openly without fear of judgment, and she intentionally keeps her personal opinions out of the therapeutic relationship. She has three years of experience and recognizes that seeking counseling is a meaningful first step; she appreciates that someone has taken that step toward support.
