About Anastasia

Anastasia Przybyla is a New York licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) who supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar symptoms, identity and LGBT concerns, relationship and family challenges, trauma and abuse, eating issues, parenting struggles, anger, career decisions, ADHD, and related areas.

Background and approach

She emphasizes building self-compassion, improving communication, and fostering meaningful connections while clients navigate life changes and recover from past wounds. Her practice blends evidence-based techniques with a warm, collaborative stance.

Anastasia uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered methods and other approaches to help clients identify unhelpful patterns, practice new skills, and clarify personal values. She guides practical skill-building for emotion regulation and problem solving while also attending to attachment themes, self-esteem, body image, and identity exploration.

With five years of clinical experience, Anastasia draws on a range of strategies to tailor treatment to each person’s needs. She accepts international clients and offers sessions in English from her New York practice, working with people who seek focused, compassionate support for coping, healing, and growth.

Online approaches that combine skills and compassion

Anastasia commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy, and may incorporate Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques when helpful. CBT focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and developing practical coping strategies for issues like anxiety, depression, and problematic behaviors. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathic listening and a supportive therapeutic relationship to help people explore values, build self-compassion, and strengthen communication. DBT contributes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness when strong emotional reactivity or relationship patterns are present.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and done collaboratively. Anastasia works with each person to assess goals, preferences, and the presenting concerns, then tailors methods and exercises to fit those needs so clients can try techniques and refine what works best over time.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care while managing work, family, or geographic constraints, and allow therapists and clients to focus on skills, reflection, and progress through accessible, ongoing contact.
