About Anat

Dr. Anat Anais is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New York with more than 30 years of clinical experience. She holds both a master’s and a doctorate degree in social work from Adelphi University in New York State, and she has spent decades working with people from diverse backgrounds who face a broad range of life challenges.

Her clinical work has addressed issues such as depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, relationship difficulties, and parenting challenges, and she has supported many individuals who have experienced trauma and abuse. Dr. Anais brings a humanistic, person-centered perspective that emphasizes clients’ strengths and respects each person’s unique story. She does not adhere to a single method of treatment; instead she integrates multiple theories and practice models to meet the needs of the individual.

Dr. Anais collaborates with each client to design a tailored treatment plan that aligns with their goals and preferences. Her approach combines professional training, long-standing clinical experience, and a strengths-oriented focus to help clients navigate transitions, heal from traumatic experiences, and build more satisfying relationships and daily functioning.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Dr. Anat Anais works from several well-established approaches to help clients explore emotions, patterns, and behaviors. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current connections and helps people address patterns of closeness, trust, and abandonment that affect adult relationships. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the client’s perspective, offering a supportive, nonjudgmental space where personal strengths guide growth and decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors by teaching practical skills for managing anxiety, mood, and stress, often useful for depression, anxiety, and coping with life changes.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Anais partners with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, then tailors a plan that may draw on one or more methods to best support progress. She adjusts strategies as therapy unfolds to stay aligned with the client’s priorities.

Online therapy offers flexible options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into a busy life and to maintain continuity during transitions. These formats allow clients to access licensed professionals from different locations and to choose the communication style that feels most helpful for their work in therapy.
