Anissa Keyes Powell

Anissa Keyes Powell is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Texas with 14 years of clinical experience. She lists stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, and life purpose among the issues she addresses. Anissa completed a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy from Saint Mary's University of Minnesota and holds licensure in Minnesota and Texas.

Anissa frames her work around relationship and restoration, and draws on beliefs about love as a foundation for healing. In sessions she listens for patterns that keep people stuck and helps them test new ways of relating to themselves and others. Meetings tend to be conversational, with attention to practical steps clients can try between sessions.

Her background includes supervision approval from Minnesota licensing boards for people pursuing LPC, LPCC, LICSW, and LMFT licensure. That experience informs how she guides goals, offers feedback, and tracks progress over time. She brings an organized approach to treatment planning and follow-up.

Anissa names faith and family as central parts of her life. She spends time with her five children and participates in church activities. Reading and reflecting are regular parts of how she stays current and grounded in her work.

People who feel stuck in work, relationships, or life direction often look for a practical clinician who will help them sort priorities. Anissa aims to help clients clarify values, experiment with small changes, and make decisions that reflect what matters most.

How evidence-based methods guide online work

Two evidence-based therapeutic techniques Anissa references are relationship-focused interventions and restorative approaches that emphasize repairing patterns in how people relate to themselves and others. Relationship-focused work looks at interaction patterns and communication, and it helps when anxiety, grief, or addictions affect connections. Restorative approaches highlight rebuilding strengths after trauma or loss and help people practice new ways of coping and relating.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each person to identify which techniques fit their goals and preferences. That conversation shapes treatment plans and the kinds of strategies tried in sessions and between meetings.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and offer shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also allows therapists and clients to try different pacing and methods without changing location, which can help people keep momentum while they test what works.
