Anastasia Ingram-Flores is a California licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who focuses on helping people build confidence and steady their mood. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, and concerns about self esteem. Her tone is respectful and warm, and she aims to make early conversations simple and direct so people can decide if therapy feels right for them.
She adapts sessions to each person’s situation rather than using one fixed plan. That can mean practicing small skills for coping with panic, thinking through career choices, or talking about relationship patterns that affect confidence. Conversations are practical and paced to fit what someone needs that week.
Anastasia draws on client-centered therapy to follow what matters most to the person in the room. She uses elements of dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing to teach skills for emotion regulation and clearer decision making. Solution-focused work helps set short-term goals and track progress.
Her nine years of experience include working with mood disorders, grief, addictions, and life transitions. She also addresses issues such as attachment and codependency, communication problems, and the effects of prejudice and discrimination on well-being. Anastasia notes the importance of cultural context when planning care.
People who choose her tend to want straightforward, compassionate support and practical tools they can try between sessions. She encourages small experiments that build confidence over time and tailors the plan as progress unfolds.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on following the client's lead and building a working relationship that fits their goals; online sessions keep that same emphasis on listening and adapting to what each person says. Dialectical behavior therapy provides concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance, which can be practiced between meetings and reviewed during sessions. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness, useful for anxiety and mood regulation.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs, goals, and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. Plans are adjusted as progress is seen, with an emphasis on practical steps and measurable short-term goals.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules require it. Remote work also lets people practice skills in their usual routines and bring real-life examples straight into sessions, which can speed up problem solving and build confidence.
