About Anna
Anna Kosa is a California LPCC with six years of professional experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, and depression. Anna speaks English and Russian and works with individuals who want clearer boundaries and steadier emotional footing.
She uses practical, evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people notice patterns that keep them stuck. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on small steps that make daily life easier. Conversations aim to clarify values, shift unhelpful habits, and build skills for managing intense feelings.
Anna pays attention to attachment and codependency issues when they come up. She addresses problems like trouble saying no, feeling empty, or staying too close to others at personal cost. Work may include exploring relationship patterns, practicing direct communication, and building a stronger sense of self.
Her approach is straightforward. People can expect clear goals, homework that is useful for real life, and check-ins on progress. The emphasis is on skills that translate outside the session so clients can try small changes between meetings.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Anna uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time. International clients are not currently accepted, and sessions are offered in English and Russian.
How sessions work
Approaches you may experience and online session basics
Anna uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skills and patterns. One approach emphasizes practical coping skills for anxiety and depression, teaching breathing, grounding, and problem-solving strategies to manage symptoms in daily life. Another concentrates on attachment and relationship patterns, helping people notice how early relationships shape current behavior and try new, healthier ways of connecting.Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with clients to identify goals, tests what helps, and adjusts methods based on what the client prefers and needs. Expectations and short-term objectives are reviewed so sessions remain focused and usable outside therapy.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let people choose sessions that match their energy level that day - for example a longer, camera-on meeting or a shorter check-in that uses less bandwidth. Licensed professionals guide these choices so the format supports the client’s goals.
