About Anya

Anya Robertson is a Florida-licensed LCSW with 11 years of professional experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. She approaches each client with respect for their own expertise about their life and emphasizes building on existing strengths to navigate challenges.

Background and approach

Her background includes work with a wide range of concerns such as caregiver stress, hospice and end-of-life counseling, blended family issues, immigration challenges, and coping after natural or human-caused disasters. Robertson combines practical, evidence-informed techniques with a collaborative stance that honors clients' goals and pace.

She integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing to help clients clarify priorities, shift unhelpful patterns, and cultivate more effective coping skills. Whether addressing communication problems, infidelity, or isolation and loneliness, she focuses on actionable strategies and compassionate support to help people move toward more satisfying day-to-day functioning.

Based in Florida, Robertson accepts English-speaking and international clients and offers multiple remote session formats to fit varied schedules and needs. She frames therapy as a partnership and aims to empower clients as they pursue lasting change.

Combining CBT, Mindfulness, and Motivational Techniques for Remote Care



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and shift unhelpful thought and behavior patterns by teaching practical skills to manage symptoms and improve daily functioning. Mindfulness Therapy emphasizes present-moment awareness and acceptance, offering tools to reduce reactivity and build resilience in the face of stress and difficult emotions. Motivational Interviewing focuses on exploring a person’s values and ambivalence to strengthen internal motivation for change and set achievable goals.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to understand their needs, preferences, and treatment goals, then adapt techniques from these methods to fit the situation. Clients can expect to participate in planning sessions and deciding together which strategies feel most useful.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to access care from varied locations and schedules. These formats allow for regular check-ins, skill practice between sessions, and adjustments to the pace or style of work so therapy can fit into everyday life.
