Amanda Anastasio

I am a licensed social worker with over 9 years of experience in outpatient and inpatient mental heath settings. I started working in private practice in Boston in 2013. I currently work with individuals eager to improve their lives, and I use a psychotherapy framework combining insight work, skills training, as well as creative elements. (yoga, breath work, meditation) I help clients gain insight into how their past experiences have shaped and influenced their life, develop tools for addressing current life situations and for putting that insight to work in moving their lives in the direction they want. I know it takes hard work and courage to make lasting change, and I have helped clients facing life's challenges and struggling to form deeper understanding of self as well as deeper connection to others. I have expertise with trauma, grief and loss, addiction, depression and anxiety, panic, sexual assault, relationships and family issues.
