About Anastasia
Anastasia Arceneaux is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Louisiana who focuses on parenting concerns as part of a broad clinical practice. She draws on 17 years of counseling experience to help people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, mood challenges, and relationship tension. Anastasia aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where parents and individuals can talk through what’s most pressing.
Anastasia uses clear, practical techniques from client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify patterns and try new ways of coping.
Background and approach
She also incorporates mindfulness strategies to lower reactivity and EMDR to address traumatic memories when appropriate. Motivational interviewing is part of how she supports shifts in behavior and goal setting. Her background includes a master’s degree in psychological counseling and specialist training in school psychology, with many years across mental health settings.
That variety has shaped her ability to tailor sessions to different ages and life stages while keeping sessions straightforward and focused. In sessions clients can expect active listening, gentle challenge, and step-by-step plans for managing symptoms and daily struggles. For parents she offers strategies for handling parenting stress, blended family issues, attachment concerns, and communication problems.
Anastasia emphasizes collaboration: she works with each person to set realistic goals and track progress. Her style is warm and practical, aimed at helping people move through hard times and build skills they can use every day.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. The therapist reflects what you say and helps you find your own solutions, which can be useful for parenting stress and self-esteem work. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and behavior challenges.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Anastasia will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust over time. Together you decide which techniques to keep and which to change so therapy stays useful and focused on real-life results.
Online sessions let people access therapy in ways that fit their day. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging allow ongoing support, quick reflections, and easier scheduling for busy parents. These options provide flexibility to work on parenting strategies, stress reduction, trauma processing, and behavior change without rearranging an entire day.
