Anastasia Ingram-Flores, LCSW

Anastasia Ingram-Flores is a licensed clinical social worker, LCSW, licensed in California with nine years of professional experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and struggles with self-esteem and motivation. Her practice also addresses life changes, grief, addictions, and career concerns.

She uses straightforward conversation to identify what matters most to each person. Sessions focus on practical steps and skills that can be used between meetings. Anastasia draws on client-centered methods to keep the focus on the persons goals, and on mindfulness and DBT skills when emotional regulation is a priority.

Her work also attends to attachment, codependency, communication problems, and issues that arise from discrimination or multicultural stress. People who face panic attacks, mood or personality disorders, or trauma-related symptoms are included in the range of concerns she lists. The approach emphasizes coping strategies and small, measurable changes.

Anastasia explains options and helps people weigh what might work for them. She uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques to set short-term goals and track progress. Conversations are meant to be practical and direct, with an eye to everyday routines, work pressures, and family responsibilities.

For those considering a first session, she asks for a brief intake to learn current struggles and priorities. From there she and the client decide which tools and techniques to use and what an initial plan looks like.
