About Anastasia
Anastasia Arceneaux is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana who focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside a wide range of emotional and behavioral issues. She draws on 17 years of counseling experience to create a calm, practical space for parents and family members who feel overwhelmed.
Her approach centers on listening first, so people feel understood before any plan is made. She works with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, ADHD, addictions, grief, and relationship and intimacy concerns.
Background and approach
She also supports those coping with life changes, career stress, parenting struggles, and compassion fatigue. Additional areas she addresses include adoption and foster care matters, attachment difficulties, blended family issues, and caregiver stress. Her training includes Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing - EMDR, Mindfulness Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing.
EMDR is noted in her background as a current area of training. Anastasia values a straightforward, nonjudgmental tone and treats each person as the expert on their life. In sessions she listens, helps identify small concrete steps, and uses strategies that match what clients need and prefer.
She emphasizes collaboration, asking questions about goals and testing approaches together. Parents can expect practical tools for communication and behavior change, along with support for managing stress. Her practice options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
Online approaches that fit family life
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building trust. The therapist helps people tell their story, identifies strengths, and supports practical steps for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches concrete skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and handle parenting challenges. EMDR, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a trauma-informed method that can help process distressing memories and reduce their emotional impact when trauma is a concern.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Anastasia will talk with clients about goals, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust as needed. She collaborates with people to decide whether listening-focused methods, skills-based CBT, EMDR, or a mix will be most useful for their situation.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy families. Video calls let conversations feel more personal while avoiding travel. Phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging add flexibility for short check-ins, scheduling constraints, or parents who need quieter options. These formats make it easier to keep continuity of care and to try therapeutic tools between sessions.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
EMDR
A structured protocol used with distressing memories, pairing recall with guided attention tasks. Some therapists adapt it for video sessions; whether that fits is worth asking about directly.
