About Anastasia

Anastasia Przybyla is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in New York with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, relationship and family concerns, LGBT issues, self-esteem, trauma and abuse, eating concerns, parenting, anger, career struggles, coping with life changes, and ADHD. She works with people who need practical help managing thoughts, feelings, and everyday routines.

Her sessions are straightforward and goal-oriented. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with client-centered conversations and skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. That means she helps people notice patterns of thinking, test different responses, and build habits that reduce distress day to day.

Anastasia pays particular attention to attachment issues, abandonment, adoption and foster care experiences, and challenges linked to autism and Asperger syndrome. She also addresses body image, chronic pain or illness, communication problems, control issues, dissociation, and recovery after domestic violence or separation.

Her style emphasizes clear strategies and practical tools rather than long, abstract talks. Sessions may include step-by-step plans, behavioral experiments, and skills practice aimed at specific problems like anxiety, mood swings, or relationship conflict.

Anastasia offers help in English and accepts international clients. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling an initial session. Costs vary by location and are billed through a cancellable subscription model.

How Anastasia Uses Practical Approaches Online

Anastasia combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered methods to make online sessions practical and focused. CBT involves tracking thoughts and testing small behavioral changes to reduce anxiety or depressive moods. Client-centered work emphasizes listening and reflecting so people feel understood as they set goals.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills when emotion regulation or intense reactions are central concerns. DBT skills teach concrete techniques for managing strong feelings, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will review your needs and preferences with you and suggest which methods to try first. That choice is collaborative and can shift as goals change over time.

If you plan to work online, confirm the session formats she currently offers before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins during a workday break, or remove travel time. Online work also makes it easier to practice real-life behavioral experiments between meetings, and to bring discussion of everyday routines directly into sessions.
