About Anastasia

Anastasia Przybyla is a New York licensed mental health counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship strain. She supports those dealing with identity questions, parenting challenges, and the emotional fallout of life changes. Anastasia centers work on building self-compassion and clearer communication so clients can make small, steady changes.

She offers a calm, affirming space where people can talk through past wounds and current problems. Sessions focus on practical skills and clearer thinking rather than jargon. Anastasia pays special attention to attachment concerns, body image struggles, and issues common in LGBTQ communities when they come up.

Her approach combines client-centered listening with goal-focused tools. That means clients set priorities and she helps shape strategies to reach them. Techniques often include behavioral experiments, emotion regulation skills, and mapping patterns that keep problems repeating.

With five years of clinical experience, Anastasia uses methods drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and narrative work. She adapts these tools to each person’s needs rather than applying a single model.

People who work with her can expect straightforward sessions that mix talk, practical exercises, and coaching around everyday situations. Anastasia accepts international clients and conducts work in English. To start, she asks people to describe their concerns so they can build a clear plan together.

How Anastasia’s approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and empathy, giving people space to tell their story and guiding conversations toward what matters most to them. It is useful for improving self-esteem, identity questions, and general emotional support.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It’s practical for anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching specific techniques to change thinking patterns and daily routines.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills to the work. It helps people manage intense feelings, reduce impulsive reactions, and improve communication during conflict.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Anastasia works collaboratively to pick or blend methods that match a person’s goals, needs, and preferences. She checks in regularly to adjust the plan so it stays useful and realistic.

If you prefer online care, confirm available session formats before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when time is limited. Therapists often adapt exercises and homework for remote settings so progress continues between meetings.
