About Anat
Dr. Anat Anais is a licensed clinical social worker in New York with 30 years of experience helping people through stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship concerns. She supports those coping with grief, parenting strain, addiction, self-esteem struggles, and life changes. She also addresses issues such as body image, attachment concerns, and coping with natural or human-caused disaster.
Her style is person-centered and strengths oriented. She believes there is no single method that fits everyone. Sessions focus on understanding each person's story and building practical steps that fit daily life.
Dr. Anais draws on several approaches including attachment-based work, cognitive behavioral ideas, emotionally focused techniques, and motivational interviewing. She adapts these methods to the goals a person brings to therapy rather than following a rigid plan.
In a typical meeting she listens for patterns that keep problems going and helps set small, achievable goals. She pays attention to relationships and how past attachments shape current reactions. For those facing trauma, she works carefully to pace the work so it feels manageable.
She provides therapy in English and Hebrew and practices from New York. People who are looking to begin can expect a collaborative process where plans are reviewed and adjusted over time.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns affect current connections. Online sessions can help people notice those patterns and practice new ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and priorities, offering space to be heard and to chart practical next steps during sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and uses concrete exercises to change them.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods feel most helpful based on their goals and preferences. Plans are reviewed and adjusted over time so the work stays useful.
The biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online work helps fit therapy into a busy schedule, makes it easier to keep short check-ins, and supports regular homework between sessions. Licensed professionals can use the methods above in remote sessions to address relationships, mood, trauma recovery, and practical coping skills without changing the collaborative way the therapist tailors care.
