Licensed Psychotherapist | Culturally Sensitive | Trauma-Informed Welcome, I’m Nubia. Healing doesn’t happen overnight — but with the right support, it absolutely happens. Whether you're working through trauma, betrayal, anxiety, divorce, or simply feeling emotionally stuck, I’m here to help you move forward with clarity, strength, and care. I work with adults navigating life transitions, stress, or emotional wounds that have been hard to process alone. Many of my clients come to me feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, or unsure of how to break free from patterns that no longer serve them. Together, we explore the deeper “why” behind those patterns — and create space for healing, resilience, and growth. My approach is grounded in evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). These methods help us understand how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected — and how to gently shift the beliefs that keep you feeling stuck. But beyond technique, I lead with authenticity, compassion, and cultural awareness. In our sessions, you’ll find a space that feels safe, honest, and judgment-free. Whether this is your first time in therapy or you’re returning to it, you are welcome exactly as you are. Clients often tell me they feel more centered, more empowered, and more hopeful after working together. I offer flexible scheduling, including evenings and virtual sessions, because healing should fit into real life. If you’re ready to begin your journey — whether you’re clear on your goals or still figuring them out — I’d be honored to support you. Let’s take the first step, together. Warmly, Nubia Anacius , MS,NBCC,LPC Licensed Psychotherapist

I would like to describe myself as a guy who likes to collaborate with clients to reach their goals and help guide them to overcome barriers that are stopping them to achieve them. I currently work as a social worker at the VA and meet with veterans who are trying to maintain housing, while also managing mental health and substance abuse issues. Through out my career as a social worker, I've dealt with at risk youths, inmates, and substance abuse, and homeless population. I've come to realize that a lot of people have one thing in common, they all would like to be treated with respect and allow them to have their autonomy. My great listening and problem solving skills with my clients help them to come to solutions to their own problems. That's what a lot of my clients can expect is a person who ask open-ended questions to help them consider things that they normally haven't and challenge their thoughts or desires versus their actions in life.

Have you ever looked at your family and thought to yourself (hopefully quietly): "Goodness, our family is so dysfunctional!" "Why can't we just get along, and connect in a healthy and 'normal' way?" If you've asked yourself any of these questions, you've come to the right address. I'm happy to help your family work to become more "functional." In a direct yet gentle way, I ask my clients tough questions and offer them concrete tools to move forward. Clients come away from sessions feeling well understood and empowered.

My work has mostly revolved around individuals and families coping with major life changes. Grief and loss can come in many forms - divorce, death, loss of a job, rejection from peers, etc. In the past, I have worked in hospital, inpatient hospice, home hospice, and palliative care settings. Today, I see patients at bedside, in the home, and with patients transitioning to different phases in their life journey. Aside from working with the patients themselves, I embrace strong family communication and problem solving. When parents need a higher level of care, caregivers often feel overwhelmed, ashamed, and dealing with many tasks to have the patient moved to a safer environment. I strive when helping these families utilize the benefits of their communities along with evidence based practice to obtain gains in regards to psychiatric symptomology.

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist and licensed professional counselor with 20 years of experience. I am fond of saying that I believe in the healing power of relationships, which is a big reason why I do what I do as a therapist. I have experience working with kids, couples, families, and adult individuals. As a licensed marriage and family therapist, I am no stranger to helping those in struggling relationships and marriages. I also have an extensive history in working with individuals struggling with many different issues including (but not limited to) anxiety, over-thinking, perfectionism, depression, rejection/abandonment issues, sexual issues, inferiority feelings, panic, and trauma. While my approach is very much evidence based, I often remark that I am more like a tour-guide helping others better understand their own emotional world. You are the one doing the work, I am just making connections and pointing out the interesting tidbits along the way.

With over 11 years in practice as a Licensed Professional Counselor, I bring both clinical expertise and real-life experience to the work I do. My journey began at Florida A&M University, where I earned my undergraduate degree before launching a successful career in business—specializing in consumer finance, compliance, and corporate training. After becoming a mother, I felt a deep calling to support other women in living more purposeful, emotionally balanced lives. That passion led me to earn a Master’s degree in Community Counseling from Argosy University with a concentration in Marriage and Family Therapy. Since then, I’ve worked across a wide range of treatment settings, supporting individuals and families through challenges related to anger, relationships, parenting, and emotional overwhelm. As the founder of Closet Therapy with Dina, I blend mental health counseling, lifestyle coaching, and professional organizing to help women declutter their lives from the inside out. When you work with me, you’re choosing a therapist who is not only highly trained—but deeply committed to your growth, healing, and empowerment.

I would like to help you improve your life and overcome any obstacle that may prevent you from moving forward and living your life to the fullest. I am the type of counselor that will always be in your corner, and I love to see people succeed. The ideal client for me is an individual willing to work on themselves and improve. Life in general, is difficult so I don't expect there to be easy issues or solutions. No matter the issue, you can overcome anything with a positive mind! I help those who are in need and would like guidance dealing with any types of issues they may encounter within their lives (past, present, or future). I can offer that ear or guidance you need to process through or overcome anything! I work with all populations including, child and adolescents. My expertise with various modalities gives me the edge to help diverse clientele. Clients that work with me will expect to take away a sense of responsibility, self-actualization, and solution to whatever issue they’re facing. I am an LPC and have over 10 years of experience. I am dedicated and have a passion to help clients improve overall. I also have a unique ability to connect with my clients, which allows them to feel heard.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Georgia rather than a city like Atlanta?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Georgia from Athens to Savannah! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Georgia.

Will my therapist take UnitedHealthcare/Optum?

Yes! If you use UnitedHealthcare/Optum you’ll be asked to verify your Member ID at the time you book the appointment. However, if you don’t have UnitedHealthcare/Optum you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

What are the "Clients say I'm" badges?

Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
