My name is Anna Eastman and I’m a Licensed Master Social Worker excited to join Autumn Counseling in clinical supervision with Brittany. I received a Bachelor of Art in Art History from the University of Texas at Austin and my Master in Social Work from Our Lady of the Lake University in San Antonio.
I am returning to Clinical Social Work after raising three children with my husband and serving in multiple public service and volunteer roles. I come to the work with a wealth of policy and personal experience in the LGBTQ+, public health, arts and education spaces.
This moment in time is remarkably full of choices, opportunities, and obstacles. My specialty is working with parents navigating life’s complexities, individually, as partners, and as your child’s guide. I have direct personal experience with teens and young adults as they are confronted with questions of gender and sexuality or living with mental illness. I look forward to working with you as you traverse the often unexpected twists and turns on your journey.
I’ve seen firsthand how psychotherapy can be a balm when struggling with family dynamics, serious mental health issues, or simply looking to live a richer and more meaningful life. I love people and all of our knotty and wonderful components. From a person-centered, emotionally-focused orientation, my practice will be a safe space for us to unpack your challenges, hopes and dreams together.
When I’m not working, I’m cooking for friends and family, walking or hiking, listening to live music - from jazz to folk to opera - in a headstand, advocating for trans youth and other young people from historically underserved communities, or curled up with my two dogs reading a good book or an article.
As an Autumn Counseling associate, I am able to offer a sliding scale. If you think we might be a good fit, click here to request a free 15-minute consultation. I look forward to hearing from you!
