About Anastasia

Anastasia Przybyla is a New York licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with five years of clinical experience. She supports people dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, relationship concerns, and identity-related challenges listed under LGBT issues. Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts clients from outside the U.S.

Her work focuses on helping people name and regulate strong emotions. She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside client-centered and cognitive behavioral techniques to address attachment issues, low self-esteem, and patterns that keep causing pain. Meetings are practical and focused on what helps in day-to-day life.

Przybyla often helps people who are navigating life changes such as separation, adoption and foster care questions, parenting strain, career shifts, or chronic health concerns. She also works with concerns like trauma and abuse, eating issues, anger, and ADHD-related coping. She draws on a mix of approaches to tailor how she supports each person.

Therapy sessions typically involve talking through recent events, identifying unhelpful patterns, and practicing different ways to respond. Cognitive and behavioral strategies are used where they fit, and interests in motivational interviewing guide steps toward practical change. The overall aim is clearer emotional understanding and stronger communication.

Before booking, people are encouraged to review session options and the subscription terms that apply. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment through the online booking flow.

How Anastasia uses EFT, client-centered work and CBT online

Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying and naming emotions and the patterns they create in relationships and personal life. It helps people see how emotional responses keep repeating and gives ways to shift those interaction patterns.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and following the person’s pace. It supports people by allowing them to lead the conversation while the therapist reflects and clarifies what matters most to the client.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It involves small experiments and practical skills for reducing anxiety, improving mood, and changing reactions to stress.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the early work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and will adjust the focus as needs change.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life - for example, shorter check-ins at work break times, sessions without video when bandwidth is limited, or appointments that avoid travel time. Licensed professionals can use different techniques online just as they do in person, and Anastasia adapts her methods to practical constraints and each client’s needs.
