About Anastasia
Anastasia Przybyla is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting challenges. She works with clients on self-esteem, relationship problems, trauma, and mood concerns such as bipolar disorder. Her style is direct and compassionate, aimed at building practical skills for everyday life.
She creates a calm, affirming space where people can talk through painful experiences and feel heard. Sessions focus on real steps - improving communication, managing strong emotions, and creating routines that reduce overwhelm.
Background and approach
Anastasia emphasizes self-compassion and steady progress rather than quick fixes. Her approach draws from client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, and dialectical behavior ideas to tailor a plan to each person. That mix helps with thought patterns, emotional regulation, and interpersonal connection.
She also uses motivational interviewing and emotionally-focused strategies when those fit the situation. Anastasia has five years of clinical experience working with a range of concerns, including grief, eating issues, ADHD, and complicated family dynamics. She has particular experience with LGBT clients and with people navigating adoption, attachment, and identity questions.
Her work balances practical tools and emotional processing. Sessions are offered in English and Anastasia accepts international clients. She supports people through life transitions, career stress, anger, and coping with chronic health or disability.
The focus is on what helps someone function better and feel more like themselves.

How Anastasia’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered work puts the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. The therapist listens, reflects, and helps the client set goals based on their values and needs. This approach is useful when someone needs space to make sense of feelings and decide what matters most.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It uses small experiments and practical tools to manage anxiety, low mood, and stress. CBT can help parents develop clearer routines and reduce worry about day-to-day demands.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and effective communication. These skills are helpful for managing intense feelings, anger, and relationship tension. DBT tools are often taught in short, actionable practices that fit into busy schedules.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try out techniques, and adjust the plan as needed. Finding a good fit is part of the work rather than a one-time choice.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video is good for face-to-face conversation, phone can be simpler when internet bandwidth is limited, live chat works for brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help people fit therapy around work, parenting, and travel.
