Anny Diaz

Anny Diaz

Therapist

Virtual • New Jersey


Hi, I'm Anny! I'm a bilingual (English/Spanish) Dominican-American Licensed Clinical Social Worker with three years of experience providing therapeutic care. I'm passionate about helping people navigate life's challenges while feeling a little less alone in the process.

I work with adults from a variety of backgrounds who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, relationship or family challenges, and major life transitions.

As a Latina therapist, I also understand how culture, family expectations, and the roles we grow up with can shape the way we see ourselves and navigate our relationships. My goal is to help you better understand what you're going through, build confidence, and move toward the version of yourself you want to become.

Dr. LaShawn Adams

Dr. LaShawn Adams

Therapist

Virtual • New Jersey


Seeking support takes courage, and I honor the strength it takes to begin this process. You may be navigating grief, major life transitions, identity exploration, or recovering from experiences of harm. Perhaps you are a young adult stepping into new responsibilities, a student balancing multiple pressures, or someone carrying the weight of anxiety or depression. You may simply want a space where you feel seen, affirmed, validated, and supported. A place to make sense of your experiences and move toward the life you envision.

That vision inspired me to create H.O.O.D. Counseling & Consulting — Heritage, Origin, and Our Dopeness. I founded H.O.O.D on the belief that healing is rooted in culture, lived experiences, and strength, reminding us that even in hardship, growth is possible. With 10+ years of experience, I offer a holistic, empowering, and culturally responsive approach. Clients describe me as compassionate, grounding, and direct, fostering an environment of trust and change.
