Anicia is thoughtful, insightful. and really easy to talk to. Working with her has helped me to feel more myself, and find my grounding voice. She offers a lot of different lens to view life through and so many solutions and quotes that stick with me throughout the week. I came to her in a very dark place and every session we have together I learn something new about how to change that for myself. She has been truly empowering and it's been like a breath of fresh air to hear her take my very unraveled thoughts and make a beautiful garment of sense.

She has given me so much support and skills to be able to work through parts of my relationships and marriage that I needed to feel better about them. I am truly grateful to her.

You are deserving and you are important.
I am a Mental Health Therapist specializing in supporting women and families with young children. I have provided Infant Mental Health Therapy to families of birth to 7 year olds since 2014. While early parenthood is my specialization, I have supported clients of all walks of life. I've worked with clients from diverse backgrounds, and a range of life stressors from interpersonal relationships, emotional regulation and coping skill development, and more. I am genuinely dedicated to guiding individuals toward a healthier mental space.
My expertise spans various areas, including anxiety, depression, interpersonal relationships issues, family issues, adjustment issues, attachment and bonding, parenting challenges, postpartum depression and perinatal mood disorders, and more.
Creating a warm and secure space is at the core of my therapeutic style. I employ a strength-based treatment approach with respect, compassion, and sensitivity to address challenging issues.
My unwavering passion for assisting individuals from diverse backgrounds remains a driving force in my work, and I am steadfast in making a positive impact in the lives of those I have the privilege to serve.
I collaborate with you to meet you where you are.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

She listens, understands and is very easy to open up to.
I have tried therapy so many times and have been unsuccessful. I know the therapist doesn’t solve problems for you, but Anicia works with me to find the right solution. She listens to me in an empathic way. She makes me feel like I can trust her. She is kind and friendly and supper accommodating since the beginning! I highly recommend her.
I’ve never had a therapist before so I was a little nervous going into it. Anicia made me feel safe and I really got to open up to her she also got me to see things in different perspectives. Honestly just a really good therapist I would recommend her to anyone
Anicia is AMAZING! She’s very personable and easy to talk to. She has helped me so much in a short amount of time. I love that she’s very professional and not afraid to inform her clients of area’s that are not her specialty. I would highly recommend Anicia as a wonderful therapist.
Anicia Battles is so cool and down to earth. I felt like I was getting great advice from a friend. Super professional but fun.
She’s wonderful. Quick to respond and easy to talk with. Gives good advice and listens.
It was a pleasure speaking with Anicia. She was kind, patient and offered her knowledge and expertise where it was needed. I wanted a therapist who was not just going to be passively listening, rather someone who could offer insight, tools and advice on how to navigate situations occurring in my life. Anicia was a good fit for this. She made it easy to open up and just talk it out and left feeling like I had some new tools to work with on the day to day.
