About Anastasia

Anastasia Arceneaux is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana who uses a grounded, evidence-informed approach to help people navigate life’s challenges.

Background and approach

She draws on client-centered principles and cognitive behavioral techniques to address stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, and a wide range of relational and behavioral issues. With 17 years of clinical experience, Anastasia emphasizes listening and partnership so clients feel heard and respected as they work toward meaningful change.

Her background includes training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) alongside mindfulness and motivational interviewing strategies, which she integrates when appropriate to suit each person’s needs. Anastasia has worked across settings with children, adolescents, and adults and offers support for matters such as grief, addiction, ADHD, eating and intimacy-related concerns, and family dynamics.

She approaches each client without judgment, helping them identify strengths and practical steps to improve coping, communication, and emotional well-being. Clients can expect a collaborative process in which the therapist helps clarify goals and tailors interventions to fit individual preferences and life circumstances.

Anastasia values the courage it takes to begin therapy and aims to create a therapeutic relationship that supports growth, resilience, and a clearer path forward.

How Anastasia’s Approaches Translate to Online Therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on empathic listening and creating a collaborative relationship where the client’s perspective guides the work; online sessions allow that connection to develop through regular, focused conversations that honor each person’s experience. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and those techniques adapt well to virtual formats through homework, worksheets, and in-session skill practice. EMDR provides a trauma-focused method that some therapists integrate into remote care when appropriate, using structured protocols to address distressing memories and symptoms.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist works together with clients to determine which methods best fit their goals, preferences, and current concerns. That collaborative exploration helps tailor the mix of strategies - whether more skills-oriented, reflective, or trauma-focused - to the person’s needs.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility: video calls recreate face-to-face interaction, phone sessions provide an accessible alternative, and live chat or text-based messaging can support shorter check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care around busy schedules and life demands while accessing licensed professionals from wherever clients are located in Louisiana.
