    About Anna

    Anna Carpentieri is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in New York. She brings five years of clinical experience and a personable, down-to-earth style to sessions. Anna likes to listen first and let the person set the pace for therapy.

    She focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and coping with life changes. She also helps people facing issues around body image, eating and food-related problems, communication difficulties, gender dysphoria, sexuality, social anxiety, isolation, and women's issues. Her work aims to make everyday problems easier to manage.

    Anna uses a client-centered approach that highlights each person's strengths and goals. She also draws on cognitive behavioral methods, dialectical behavior ideas, mindfulness practices, narrative techniques, and Motivational Interviewing when appropriate. Sessions may include simple tools like guided breathing, visualization, journaling prompts, and short worksheets.

    Her manner is warm and slightly casual, with an emphasis on curiosity and collaboration. Anna has worked online for several years and appreciates the flexibility virtual work offers. She adapts what she brings to sessions so it fits each person’s life and needs.

    To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on therapist availability. Anna aims to create a space where people can talk through concerns and move toward clearer next steps.

  2. How Anna uses different approaches in online therapy

    Anna often blends client-centered work with focused techniques to meet real-life needs. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and following the person's lead, helping them name goals and build on strengths. Motivational Interviewing is used to explore readiness for change in a gentle, nonjudgmental way that helps people move toward decisions they feel ready to try. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and offers practical strategies to reduce anxiety, lift mood, and change unhelpful patterns.

    Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Anna will ask about a person's goals, daily routines, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

    Anna has used online sessions for several years and values the flexibility they can provide. If you are considering remote therapy, confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow quieter check-ins when needed, and let people use tools like guided breathing or journaling between meetings.
