About Anna
Anna Carpentieri is a licensed clinical social worker - LCSW - practicing in New York with five years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem struggles, family tensions, and major life changes. Sessions are described as conversational and person-centered, with attention to practical skills and everyday problems.
She focuses on helping people notice patterns in thoughts and behavior and try different responses. Anna uses tools such as visualization, journaling, breathing exercises, and worksheets. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is part of her approach alongside DBT, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and narrative methods.
Her style is relaxed and client-led. She encourages people to identify strengths and small, manageable steps. She pays attention to communication habits and body image or eating-related concerns when those issues come up.
Anna has worked with people experiencing trauma, loss, social anxiety, gender dysphoria, and issues related to sexuality and women’s health. She blends practical strategies with listening to what matters to each person. That combination guides session pacing and the choice of exercises.
She has used online platforms for therapy for over four years and notes the flexibility they offer. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options. To start, complete the short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session using the platform controls.
How Anna blends CBT, DBT and person-centered work online
Anna uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT focuses on clear steps and exercises such as worksheets and behavior experiments that address anxiety, low mood, and social fears.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills when emotional regulation and distress tolerance are needed. DBT offers concrete skills for managing strong feelings, improving attention, and stabilizing reactions in tense moments. Her person-centered approach keeps the conversation driven by the client's priorities and strengths, with the therapist helping to organize and try practical tools.
Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. She will discuss goals, preferences, and what has worked or not worked before. Together they pick tools and pacing, and review progress over time.
The biography notes experience with online sessions for over four years, but specific session formats are not listed here. Please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets the therapist share digital worksheets and journaling prompts between meetings to support practice between sessions.
