My name is Anna Klimachefsky. I’m a General Practitioner Licensed Clinical Social Worker with the specialization in emotional/behavioral health. I worked in a field for 13 years. I have experience working with people from all different backgrounds who are struggling with a wide variety of challenges. Much of my experience has been working with people who are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse, relationship problems and difficulties of life. I also worked with the individuals who were affected by the loved one's mental illness or life struggles.
One if the important aspect of therapy is the relationship between the individual and the therapist. My approach is different with every individual, depending on their specific needs.
I can interact with you in whatever manner you are most comfortable. I am available to you via phone , text or video. I generally check messages here two times a day, Mon-Sun. I do appreciate your patience when it takes a bit longer at times, as I may be tending to other clients or professional/person responsibilities..

Anna was a patient and accommodating therapist to me during a time I was greatly struggling with. She gave me validation for what I was feeling as well as being a good listener to some of the obstacles I was feeling. I recommend Anna for anybody that needs a nurturing, yet accountable therapist.

Anna is one of the most caring and compassionate people I have ever worked with. She truly understood what my needs were and helped me through so many obstacles in my life. I truly am grateful to have had such an amazing therapist such as her.

I came to better-help when I was finally ready to take on the work to better myself, but I knew my schedule was going to be challenging to commit to a 'traditional' therapist. In the past, I would begin therapy and had a difficult time connecting with them. I would feel judged, shameful, and belittled. I was nervous to start, and Anna made it seamless for me. I expressed myself authentically of what my needs and goals were, and she never once made me feel anything I stated above. She is empathetic, personable, relatable, and she gently pushed me when needed. I look forward to speaking with her weekly. She has helped me tremendously to be kinder to myself, create boundaries, and work on my goals. I have truly enjoyed my time with her, and I am beyond grateful for her.

I had a wonderful time working with Anna. She is extremely easy to talk to and always comes to the appointment with a smile on her face. She was very knowledgeable in immigrant issues as well as LGBTQ issues. She makes you feel safe and like you're not alone in your path. She will share her personal experiences, and relate it to the topic of discussion. She will always check in with you at the beginning of the appointment and build off of what was last discussed. She is an absolute pleasure to work with.

Anna is super nice and supportive. This is my first time doing therapy, and I feel safe and comfortable. As you describe your issues with her, she takes the time to re-describe the situation in a way that helps you understand what happened and how you felt in that moment, which I think is really important to help you in your journey.

When I signed up for betterhelp, I was matched with Anna. I do feel like the website did a very good job in selecting someone that I felt comfortable with. It was very easy for me to talk to Anna from the start and appreciate that my needs for self improvement are very well met in talking to her. I like the tools Anna offer me to help with everyday stressors and triggers. I feel like I've come a long way since starting talking with her.

Anna has been such a great outlet. Talking with her has provided the much needed guidance I was looking for. She truly understood my issue and broke it down in such a simple way. I can't believe I was overlooking some of the basic root causes. But she turned the light bulb on in my head. :)

Anna is a thoughtful, caring and relatable counselor. She helped me through a very stressful and uncertain time. Sometimes it can be hard to open up and confide in a therapist because it's an interaction with someone unknown. Anna made me feel comfortable and at ease every session. She's truly wonderful!

Anna was there to give help and guidance to me in my time of need. She is caring, understanding, smart, and allows you to be heard. She made it comfortable to talk about my issues, which is something I've struggled with my whole life. She's taught me the skills to allow me to make the right choices and changes in my life. I could not have asked to be matched with a better counselor.

Anna is very friendly and a great listener. She always makes sure to provide useful resources to help tackle whatever I’m struggling with. She is very encouraging, and pushes me to challenge my anxiety. I have found her counselling very helpful.

I have only been talking to Anna Klimachefsky for a very short amount of time. Although I was the one who signed up for Better Help, I was struggling to accept that I needed to actually talk to someone in order to get some help/guidance. I cancelled my first session and when I rescheduled I had major anxiety. The moment she called me for my session felt relieved.
Anna has a very kind, caring, and calming way about her. It feels like talking to a friend. She doesn’t judge and always has helpful suggestions and recommendations. I am greatly satisfied!
Thanks Anna!

I’ve been in therapy with Anna for about a month, almost two months, now and wow! I’ve struggled with addiction for the past 4-6 years and with Anna’s help and guidance I am in a much better place and maintaining my sobriety. She is kind, introspective, and above all an amazing listener!
