About

My name is Anastasiia Molotkova

Hi, I’m Anastasiia Molotkova, MS, Registered Mental Health Counselor Intern in Florida, practicing under clinical supervision as I work toward full licensure. I provide online therapy with a warm, structured, and collaborative approach.

I have a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from Barry University in Miami, Florida, and have been working with clients in a clinical setting.

I hold both Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Architecture and Historic Preservation, and this creative and analytical background continues to shape my identity as a therapist today. My experience in design taught me to look beneath the surface, understand systems and patterns, and thoughtfully support transformation and growth — perspectives that naturally became part of my therapeutic approach.

Before becoming a therapist, I spent many years working with children and families in roles connected to art, architecture, and education. This background deeply shaped my understanding of emotional expression, development, and human behavior, and continues to inform my clinical work today.

I specialize in supporting clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, immigration experiences, career transitions, and cultural identity challenges. As a Russian-American who has lived in Florida for over nine years, I also bring a personal understanding of cultural adaptation and identity shifts.

Я свободно говорю по-русски и буду рада поддержать вас на русском языке или в русско-английском формате.

My goal is to offer a space where you feel seen, supported, and understood, and where we can work together toward greater clarity, stability, and connection to yourself.

What We Can Work Through Together

These are some of the main areas I focus on, based on my clinical training, experience, and professional interests. This is not an exhaustive list. If you're unsure whether we're a good fit, feel free to reach out or schedule a free 15-minute introductory call to discuss your needs and explore how I can support you.

Trauma &

Emotional Healing

I work primarily with women healing from trauma, using a trauma-informed, somatic approach that emphasizes emotional safety and the mind-body connection. I integrate mindfulness and art-informed techniques to support emotional processing, regulation, and reconnection with yourself.

You might be...

Carrying pain from past experiences
Struggling to feel safe, calm, or grounded
Having difficulty relaxing or constantly feeling on edge
Experiencing sleep difficulties or trouble feeling fully rested
Feeling disconnected from yourself or your body
Feeling stuck in patterns you can’t seem to break

Stress,

Anxiety & Depression

I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, overwhelm, self-doubt, emotional burnout, and feelings of being stuck or disconnected from themselves. Together, we work toward greater emotional clarity and stability, healthier coping patterns, and a stronger connection to yourself.

You might be...

Feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or constantly overthinking
Struggling to relax or turn your mind off
Feeling low, unmotivated, emotionally drained, or burned out
Doubting yourself or being overly self-critical
Feeling disconnected from yourself or your emotions

Transitions &

Adjustments

I support clients navigating identity shifts and life transitions, including immigration, career changes, educational stress, relationship changes, cultural adaptation, and other major life adjustments. Depending on your needs, our work may be short-term and goal-focused or longer-term and more exploratory.

You might be...

Going through a major life change and feeling overwhelmed
Adjusting to a new country, culture, or environment
Questioning your identity, direction, or purpose
Navigating career or educational stress
Going through relationship changes or life transitions
Feeling lost, stuck, or unsure what’s next
You might be...
Going through a major life change and feeling overwhelmed
Adjusting to a new country, culture, or environment
Questioning your identity, direction, or purpose
Navigating career or educational stress
Experiencing changes in your relationships
Feeling lost, stuck, or unsure of what comes next

Immigration & Cultural Adjustment

As an immigrant who moved to a new country alone, I understand that this transition is not only about learning a new language, pursuing education, or building a career, but also about developing a new sense of identity. I bring an understanding of Eastern European culture, values, and family dynamics, which can be especially supportive for clients with similar backgrounds.

Immigration is often more than a practical transition. It can be a profound shift in identity, bringing both growth and challenges, including stress, loss, and grief. I support clients in navigating the emotional and practical aspects of this process.

Depending on your needs, our work may be short-term and goal-focused, incorporating approaches such as CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing, or longer-term and more exploratory, focusing on identity, belonging, and deeper emotional processing.

I offer therapy in English, Russian, or a combination of both, depending on what feels most comfortable for you.

Я свободно говорю по-русски и буду рада поддержать вас на русском языке или в русско-английском формате.

You might be...

Adjusting to life in a new country
Feeling caught between cultures or not fully belonging anywhere
Missing home, family, or a sense of familiarity
Navigating language barriers, career changes, or shifts in identity
Building a relationship or family with a partner from a different cultural background
Feeling alone or misunderstood in your experience
Experiencing grief related to immigration and what you've left behind
Trying to rebuild your sense of self in a new environment

Childhood & Parenting Support

With over 10 years of experience working with children and families, I bring a developmentally informed approach to supporting both children and parents. My work focuses on understanding a child’s emotional world while helping parents feel more equipped, connected, and confident in their role.

I integrate art-informed therapy, Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT), and DBT-informed skills, depending on the needs of each child and family.

Caregiver involvement is an important part of therapy with children. When appropriate, I also collaborate with teachers and other providers to support the child’s progress.

Please note that in-person sessions are often recommended for children. Availability and session format can be discussed before scheduling to determine what best meets your child’s needs.

Your child or family might be...

Struggling with big emotions, meltdowns, or anxiety
Having difficulty with sleep, transitions, or daily routines
Feeling overwhelmed, sensitive, or easily frustrated
Going through changes at home, school, or within the family
Experiencing challenges with behavior, communication, or social interactions
Showing signs of stress, withdrawal, or low mood
Needing additional emotional support, understanding, or connection
Feeling unsure, as a parent, about how best to support your child

Art-Informed Therapy

I offer an art-informed approach that integrates creativity with traditional talk therapy. Drawing on my background in art, architecture, and design, I bring a creative and visual perspective to the therapeutic process.

This approach can be especially helpful for individuals who process experiences visually, feel more comfortable expressing themselves through imagery and creativity, or find traditional talk therapy challenging. It may also be beneficial for neurodivergent clients, children, and individuals healing from trauma, offering alternative ways to explore emotions, process experiences, and reconnect with themselves.

You might be...

Finding it difficult to express your feelings through words alone
Feeling more comfortable communicating through images, colors, or creativity
Looking for an alternative to traditional talk therapy
Struggling to identify or process complex emotions
Interested in exploring your experiences through creative expression
Seeking new ways to connect with yourself and your emotions
