About Anastasia

Anastasia Przybyla is a licensed mental health counselor in New York who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges. She works with people dealing with ADHD, bipolar symptoms, parenting strain, eating concerns, trauma, and issues around identity and self-esteem. Anastasia emphasizes building self-compassion and stronger connections as foundations for change.

She aims to create an affirming space where people can talk through present problems and past wounds. Sessions focus on practical skills and clearer communication rather than long explanations. Anastasia often uses everyday examples to help clients notice patterns in thoughts and habits and try small changes.

Her work draws on client-centered methods that prioritize the person’s goals and timing. She blends cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and dialectical behavior ideas to build emotion regulation skills. Emotionally-focused ideas support improving relationship patterns and attachment concerns.

Anastasia has five years of clinical experience as an LMHC. She has substantial work with LGBTQ+ people and with those managing life transitions like divorce or adoption-related questions. That background informs how she supports people with identity, communication, and family-related stress.

Clients partner with her to set clear, achievable goals and test new ways of handling difficult moments. She encourages small experiments in daily routines and thought habits that can shift how a person feels and responds. Before booking, readers should confirm current session formats and scheduling options.

How Anastasia Uses Therapy Approaches Online

Client-centered therapy puts the person’s goals and preferences first. Sessions focus on listening, validating the person’s experience, and shaping work around what matters most to them. This approach helps when someone wants an accepting, collaborative way to sort through feelings and choices.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and everyday habits affect mood and behavior. It uses practical exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and try different actions. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress when people want concrete steps to change thought patterns.

Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, provides tools for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It includes skills for noticing emotions, tolerating distress, and communicating needs more clearly.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. Anastasia will talk with each person about goals and preferences and together choose which methods to try. That collaboration helps shape sessions that fit the person’s needs rather than forcing one way of working.

Practical benefits of online therapy include being able to fit sessions into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep regular appointments during life changes or when juggling parenting and work. Session formats are not listed here, so confirm the current options before booking to see how sessions can fit into everyday life.
