Hi, I am Anese, and I am proud of you for considering therapy–this is a huge step. During our journey together, I can and will provide support for your goals and needs, whether it is a desire for healing, wanting to learn more about yourself, or identifying personal strengths and challenges in order to grow. My style is warm, empathetic, open, and optimistic. You will work toward goals for peace and wholeness through self-exploration. I would like to help you develop the tools necessary to build resilience, feel empowered to solve problems, and make decisions that align with your values, abilities, and goals. Our shared space will be trusting, collaborative, nonjudgmental, and offer ample room for personal growth.
I am licensed in Illinois, Indiana, and Missouri with 10 years of mental health experience with adults, young adults, and adolescents. My focus and experience is in helping clients cope with stress, depression, and anxiety related to work, school and life issues, coping with grief and loss, as well as cultivating self esteem, confidence, and motivation. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage, and I am here to applaud you, and help you along this brave undertaking.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Anese is an outstanding therapist. I highly recommend her!
Anese is absolutely amazing. I didn't know what to expect when I signed up for therapy. Anese started our session by wanting to know about me, and reviewing what I typed out about myself. She listened. I know this is her job, but something about the way she is, was what I needed in that exact moment. Anese is there for you while you are doing the work to better yourself. Anese taught me that life really can be simple if we just slow down, go back to the basics of what we were taught as a child, and just be. A simple change in my daily routine has changed my entire world for the better. A basic daily task, that is so simple, changed so much. Who knew..... I am able to slow down and see so much more now than before. Anese never made me feel like my feelings didn't matter, no matter how crazy they seemed in the moment of my need. She knows my name, knows my issues, knows and believes that I can be whatever I want and need to be. You have to believe that you can do that as well, put in the work that is needed to better yourself, and you can do it. I cannot thank Anese enough for everything she has taught me on how to be the best person I know I can be,
Very patient and understanding. Feels like I am speaking with a loving family member. Non judgmental. The best I could ask for!
I literally had to look up how to write a review on Better Help because I'm not very good with tech stuff but was determined to leave Anese a review. Asking for help is NOT easy, and GETTING help isn't always accessible, and getting quick and TIMELY support is nearly impossible in general.. So i stopped trying. BUT working with Anese made me realize that it truly is about just finding the right therapist. She has been very timely and patient in helping me process and deepen my understanding of myself and things I'm going through. I've tried for years to look for help and within the first session Anese helped me process a lifetime of things and I realized I found THE ONE. So yeah, if you're tired od looking, go with Anese.
We have only had 2 sessions, but I would highly recommend her.
I love my sessions with her. She listens to me and I'm grateful I chose her to be my therapist.
