About Anna

Anna Carpentieri is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in New York with five years of professional experience. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. Anna also focuses on concerns such as body image, eating and food-related issues, gender dysphoria, sexuality, social anxiety, and women's issues.

She draws on a client-centered approach, letting clients' priorities guide sessions while offering practical tools when useful. She uses elements of cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and narrative therapy when those methods fit a person’s goals.

In sessions she often uses visualization, journaling prompts, breathing exercises, and worksheets to practice new skills. The work aims to identify small changes that make everyday life easier. Conversations are direct and conversational, with space for planning concrete next steps.

Anna has been offering virtual work for several years and values the flexibility it provides. She pays attention to what a client already tried and builds on existing strengths. People who want straightforward, practical support around mood, relationships, and self-image may find this approach helpful.

To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. That initial step helps clarify priorities and what to focus on in early meetings.

BHow sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Anna often uses client-centered work alongside cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). Client-centered work means conversations focus on what matters most to the person and the therapist follows the client's lead. CBT looks at unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and uses skills and worksheets to change them. DBT offers practical skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness.

Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide what methods and tools to try, based on their goals and preferences. Early sessions are used to clarify priorities and pick concrete skills to practice between meetings.

The original biography notes she has used online platforms for several years and values the flexibility they allow. Because the session formats are not specified in the profile, confirm current session options before booking. Many people find virtual work helps fit therapy into a busy week, allows shorter check-ins when needed, and makes using worksheets and journaling prompts easier between meetings.
