Anna Marasco, LCSW

Anna Marasco is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 11 years of practice based in Utah. She works with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. Anna frames behaviors like substance use or emotional dysregulation as learned survival skills rather than fixed identity traits. She approaches sessions in a straightforward, person-focused way and treats each situation as layered and individual.

She uses a client-centered style that emphasizes understanding how current behavior developed. Sessions look at coping patterns, communication difficulties, and relationship questions in clear terms. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy are among the methods she draws on to address thinking patterns and emotional regulation skills.

Anna also integrates attachment-focused ideas when relationships or abandonment issues are present. For trauma-related symptoms she incorporates EMDR-informed strategies along with grief work and support for co-occurring issues like addiction. She highlights treating symptoms such as dissociation, mood dysregulation, and codependency within their larger life context.

Her background includes work with PTSD, complicated grief, gender identity concerns, autism, and a range of personality and mood-related conditions. Anna prefers to adapt methods to what a person needs rather than listing standard coping tips. She encourages bringing both difficult and positive parts of life into sessions so practical steps can follow.

Outside of clinical work she holds a Master of Fine Arts in creative writing and spends time with her horse, Henry. The profile emphasizes straightforward support and practical collaboration toward the goals the client identifies.
