Therapist

Virtual • New York


I am Anna Rozengauz, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 18 years of experience

helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, and the kind of life transitions that

leave you feeling stuck or uncertain about what comes next. I work with people who are

often high-functioning on the outside but privately exhausted — people who want to

feel more in control of their emotions and more at ease in their own lives. I offer

sessions in both English and Russian, and I work with many clients from Eastern

European and immigrant backgrounds who want a therapist who understands their

cultural frame of reference as much as their symptoms.

Dating, maintaining healthy relationships, and keeping it spicy in the bedroom can be challenging and feel overwhelming. Whether you are single or in a relationship, couple’s therapy can help.


My work with Couples focuses on issues of communication, intimacy, infidelity, trust and sexual difficulties. If you are single, and are looking to work through past or prospective relationships, we can work on helping identify the factors getting in the way of finding, or maintaining healthy relationships.


Experiencing a lack of sexual fulfillment during any stage your life can feel isolating, challenging and overwhelming. Whether you are single, dating, in an open relationship, or in a committed relationship. When “sex isn’t working”, it feels uncomfortable and frustrating, and can make you feel like there is something wrong with you.


We can work together in Sex Therapy, as an Individual or as a Couple to help you achieve the positive sex goals you want and deserve. I'm an English/Spanish speaking Psychotherapist. I specialize in Individuals, Couples and Sex Therapy. I would like to help you feel better and have success in all areas of your life. Give me a call for a free consultation.

Life can be overwhelming, especially when you're navigating anxiety, OCD, depression, grief, trauma, or the uncertainty of infertility and perinatal challenges. I offer a grounded, nonjudgmental space where you can show up exactly as you are. Together, we’ll unpack the patterns, stories, and stressors that may be keeping you stuck, and build practical tools to help you feel more confident, connected, and in control.

I work with adults of all ages with a focus on supporting individuals through life transitions: career burnout, relationship shifts, identity changes, and the complexities of becoming (or deciding not to become) a parent.

It's difficult making the first phone call, booking an appointment and admitting you need help. Whether it's depression, anxiety, a mood disorder or trauma, it's frightening to admit that everything isn't how you want it to be and you don't have all the answers. If you're experiencing sadness, anxiety, mood swings, intrusive thoughts or images, flash backs, numbness or insomnia, there is hope and there is help. I'm going to teach you skills to manage you symptoms, emotions and relationships more effectively.

Frequently asked questions

Therapy Chair

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Buffalo

Finding OCD therapists in Buffalo starts with looking for a therapist who has specific experience with obsessive-compulsive disorder and related concerns, such as intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, checking, contamination fears, and reassurance seeking. Exposure and response prevention, also called ERP, is a well-established therapy approach for OCD, and not all therapists are trained in it. As you review therapist profiles, look for clear references to OCD, ERP, exposure and response prevention, cognitive behavioral therapy, and experience supporting people with the concerns you want to address.

Buffalo has a strong mental health care community, though the right OCD fit may depend on both specialty training and practical access. Some people prefer in-person OCD therapy near them, while others use virtual sessions to consider more therapists across the Buffalo area and nearby communities. When comparing options, look beyond whether a therapist lists OCD as a specialty. Check whether they mention ERP training, current appointment availability, whether they are accepting new patients, and how they describe their session structure or communication style.

Therapy in Buffalo can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you search for OCD therapists, review detailed bios, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and schedule directly when you are ready. Nationally, Headway partners with 70+ insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage for your specific plan on Headway before booking.
