About Toni
Toni Anderson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Mississippi with 30 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship strain, and life transitions. She also supports people coping with parenting challenges, grief, trauma and abuse, and career-related strain.
Her approach centers on clear, practical steps rather than jargon. Sessions focus on identifying patterns that fuel strong reactions, learning skills to manage intense feelings, and testing new ways of responding in everyday life. She uses a mix of methods to help people recognize thoughts, notice emotions, and take values-based actions.
Toni draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people change behaviors without denying difficult feelings. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed. Emotionally-Focused and Client-Centered ideas guide how relationships and personal meaning are explored.
She has worked with a wide range of concerns across three decades, including chronic pain, caregiver stress, addiction issues, attachment and abandonment wounds, and blended family problems. That experience feeds practical strategies for handling anger, resentment, and communication breakdowns.
Language of service is English, and she accepts international clients. Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, select the See online therapy options button, complete the brief matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How Toni uses ACT, CBT and DBT online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting driven by them, then choose actions that reflect what matters. It can be useful for anger linked to values conflicts and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep feelings like anger going and teaches concrete skills to change those patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills for moments when feelings become overwhelming.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Toni will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their needs and goals. That process includes trying strategies in sessions and in daily life, then adjusting based on what helps.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also let people practice skills between meetings and bring real-life examples into conversation. Licensed professionals often adapt exercises and worksheets for remote sessions to keep them practical and actionable.
