Feeling overwhelmed, hopeless, or disconnected from yourself? I'm Anastasia, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to helping adults through their mental health journeys. I specialize in empowering individuals to overcome challenges such as depression, social anxiety, and the impact of trauma.

My approach is collaborative and non-judgmental, focusing on your unique strengths. Using evidence-based methods like CBT and psychodynamic therapy, we will work together to build the skills you need to regain control and feel like yourself again. As a married and practicing Christian, I have a deep and personal understanding of the dynamics that shape both marital and family relationships. My faith and my own experiences allow me to approach these challenges with a unique blend of empathy and insight. I have the expertise to help you navigate marital and family challenges with your personal goals and spiritual values in mind.

Hello,

I'm a licensed clinical psychologist (which means I have a doctorate and I do talk therapy, no medication assessment or prescribing) that loves working with women that are wanting to recover from disordered eating, body image challenges, or learning to travel with grief.

I work with you to find the right balance of radical acceptance, meeting you where you are at, with compassion, along with encouraging you to change and grow, where you would like to change and grow.
