About Anya

Anya Robertson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida. She brings 11 years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma, grief, and depression. She frames clients as the experts on their own lives and focuses on practical steps toward change.

Her approach starts with listening closely to what matters most to each person. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented, with attention to strengths people already have. She encourages small, manageable changes that add up over time.

Anya uses tools from cognitive behavioral approaches to help challenge unhelpful thoughts and actions. She also integrates mindfulness techniques to reduce reactivity and build awareness. Motivational interviewing helps people clarify what they want and take steps toward those goals.

She has worked with people facing aging and geriatric concerns, caregiver stress, cancer and hospice and end-of-life counseling-related issues, blended family dynamics, immigration stress, and the effects of disaster or first responder work. Communication problems, infidelity, loneliness, and divorce are also included in her focus areas.

Her style is warm and straightforward. She supports people who want clear, doable strategies as well as those who need space to process painful losses. To begin, she asks about what led you to seek help and what you want to achieve so sessions can be tailored to your situation.

How therapy approaches work in online care

CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches concrete skills to reframe unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and depressive patterns.

Mindfulness Therapy emphasizes present-moment awareness and simple attention skills. Practicing mindfulness can help lower stress, ease reactivity, and improve how someone copes with grief or ongoing worry.

Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative way to explore what you want to change and what might get in the way. It helps people strengthen their own motivation and plan small steps forward.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with clients to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. That collaboration can include trying different techniques until the best fit emerges.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options when booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, shorten commute time, and allow for check-ins without needing to be on camera. It can also let people continue work on grief, stress, or relationship challenges from wherever they are located, while the therapist and client focus on practical tools and achievable goals.
