Anastasia Miloslavskaya, ACA

Anastasia Miloslavskaya is a holistic integrative psychotherapist and mindfulness coach who blends clinical training with creative sensitivity to support people through life transitions and relationship challenges. She has lived in four countries, completed studies at two universities and worked across a variety of organisations before establishing her private practice, HERE4U Counselling & Psychotherapy. She has experience supporting international students and people who have relocated to Australia with adaptation and adjustment issues, and she pays particular attention to the grief and loss that can accompany major life changes.

Anastasia helps clients address loneliness, despair and anxiety before these feelings deepen into more persistent difficulties, and she supports work on parenting, career concerns, self-esteem and ADHD-related challenges. Her approach aims to help people find inner harmony and be more present in their lives. One client reported feeling that they were not simply learning to acclimatise to life in Australia but becoming more confident about living the life they were meant to live; another reflected that Anastasia normalised a sense of relief alongside grief in a humane and kind way.

She practices with core values of respect, kindness and safety and offers flexible, individualized care that honours each person’s differences so they feel heard and validated. Anastasia holds the ACA credential, a professional counselling association credential that reflects her clinical training and membership in a recognised professional body. Outside of practice she enjoys painting, writing, singing, dancing, spending time with pets and being in nature, and she is passionate about reducing stigma around mental health and help seeking.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Anastasia commonly integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside client-centered principles to tailor work to each person’s needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and it focuses on identifying personal values and taking meaningful action - it can be useful for anxiety, adjustment and life-direction concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns formed in early relationships and how they influence current connections, which can help with abandonment, communication problems and family-of-origin issues. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, respect and unconditional positive regard so clients feel heard and validated while they explore goals such as improving self-esteem, managing grief or navigating parenting challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Anastasia works collaboratively with clients and with other licensed professionals as needed to determine which methods best match a person’s goals, preferences and circumstances, and she adjusts the plan over time based on what is most helpful.

Online therapy with Anastasia is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions, balance therapy with work or family commitments, and access support from wherever a person is located within Australia.
