About Anastasia

Anastasia Arceneaux is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with 17 years of clinical experience. She works with adults and adolescents on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and anger. Anastasia uses clear, practical conversation to help people understand what triggers strong reactions and what to try differently in daily life.

She draws on client-centered work to listen and validate what a person brings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thoughts and habits that feed anger and anxiety. She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and mindfulness techniques when trauma and intense memories are part of the problem.

Sessions focus on concrete skills rather than abstract theory. People practice noticing patterns, testing small changes, and building routines that reduce overwhelm. Anastasia also brings motivational interviewing strategies to help clients sort out their goals and stay on track with behavior changes.

Her background includes a master's degree in psychological counseling and a specialist credential in school psychology. Anastasia has worked in settings that include schools and mental health clinics, and she has experience across a wide range of concerns from grief and addiction to relationship difficulties and ADHD.

She speaks English and does not work with international clients. Before scheduling, readers should confirm current session formats and practical details through the site’s matching process.

How her approaches are used in online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps people feel heard and clarifies personal goals and values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches concrete skills to notice thoughts, test them, and change behaviors that keep anger and anxiety active. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an approach she uses when past traumatic memories drive strong reactions; it works on processing those memories so they are less triggering.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Anastasia will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and comfort. That decision is revisited over time as progress or new concerns appear.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example by cutting travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a break, or letting someone join from a quieter spot. These practical benefits can help people maintain consistency while they practice new ways to manage anger and related stress.
