About Me
Anna Gribetz, PhD, LCSW
I have over a decade of experience providing grief counseling in NYC, supporting individuals facing loss, bereavement, and chronic illness. This work has given me deep insight into the unique challenges of grief and major life transitions. As a dedicated therapist, I specialize in psychodynamic therapy in New York, creating a safe and supportive space for individuals and couples to explore their emotions and develop effective coping strategies.
​
I hold both a PhD and a Master’s degree in Clinical Social Work, allowing me to integrate the latest evidence-based practices into my approach. I provide personalized therapy for those seeking support with grief and loss, young adult counseling, or couples therapy, including marriage counseling and premarital counseling. I am an in-network UMR therapist in NYC and also offer private pay and out-of-network options to ensure accessible, high-quality care.
