About Anya

Anya Robertson is a Florida licensed clinical social worker with 11 years of practice as a clinician. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. Anya emphasizes practical steps and steady support as people work toward clearer goals and more manageable days.

She approaches each person as the expert on their life and looks for the strengths they already have. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented, with attention to what feels doable between meetings. Anya aims to make tasks feel small enough to try and build on those successes.

Her work also covers concerns that arise as people age and face health changes, such as caregiver stress, end-of-life planning, and coping with cancer or hospice situations. She helps clients talk through blended family challenges, divorce and separation, and immigration-related stress in plain language and concrete steps.

Anya uses tools drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing to help people change difficult patterns, manage overwhelming thoughts, and find reasons to keep moving forward. She blends practical strategies with an encouraging tone so clients can practice new skills between sessions.

People who want straightforward guidance, a focus on skills they can use day to day, and a partner in problem solving may find her style helpful. Her practice is based in Florida and she offers sessions in English, including to international clients.

How Anya’s approaches translate to online therapy

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioral experiments. It helps with anxiety, depression, and day-to-day stress by giving clear strategies to try between sessions.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and calm the body. Those techniques can help when worry, grief, or intense memories feel overwhelming.

Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative way to clarify what matters to a person and to build motivation for change. It’s useful when someone feels stuck or uncertain about next steps.

Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has helped in the past, then try approaches together to see what fits. The process is collaborative and adjusted over time.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people practice tools in the settings where stress actually happens, which can make skill-building more practical.
