About Anastasia

Anastasia Ingram-Flores is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California with nine years of clinical experience. She works with adults who feel stuck or uncertain about next steps, including people facing stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar mood challenges, and questions about life purpose. Anastasia also supports those coping with grief, addiction, and work or career doubts.

In session she centers conversations on what matters to each person. She uses client-centered methods to listen closely and shape conversations around a person’s goals. She brings techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy to help manage intense emotions and build steady routines.

Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy inform short-term planning and practical steps. That can include breaking a big decision into manageable parts, testing low-risk changes, or developing daily practices that reduce overwhelm. Sessions focus on clear, doable actions rather than abstract ideas.

Anastasia pays attention to cultural and life factors that affect decisions and mood. She talks through patterns like attachment or codependency, communication problems, and the effects of prejudice or discrimination. This helps clients see how external pressures shape personal choices.

Her style is straightforward and goal-oriented, aimed at helping a person find more direction after a change. For people weighing career moves, coping with loss, or trying to steady mood swings, she offers practical tools and steady clinical experience.

How Anastasia uses therapeutic methods online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's priorities. Sessions prioritize what the person says matters most and shape goals from that starting point. This approach helps when someone is unsure what to focus on next.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches concrete skills for handling intense emotions and reducing impulsive reactions. It can help with mood swings, severe anxiety, and patterns that interfere with work or relationships. Mindfulness Therapy brings simple attention practices that reduce reactivity and help with daily stress management.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Anastasia will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and she will adapt over time based on what helps. That means trying practical strategies, checking progress, and shifting directions when needed.

The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy life and reducing travel time. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to schedule shorter check-ins, avoid long commutes, and fit therapy into a lunch break or evening routine.
