Anna Blair is a Licensed Social Worker, LSW, and earned her Master of Social Work through the Advanced Standing Program at University of Kentucky after completing her Bachelor of Social Work at University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. She is passionate about working with children, adolescents, and adults experiencing anxiety, life transitions, and trauma-related symptoms. Anna has training working with ADHD, OCD, Depression, Social Anxiety, and Generalized Anxiety.
Anna believes therapy is a chance to understand yourself more deeply, build skills that help in daily life, and take steps forward when things feel overwhelming.
Her approach uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients manage anxiety, work through trauma, and tackle life’s challenges. She focuses on practical skills that clients can use in their daily lives, while also helping them notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. With children and teens, she keeps sessions hands-on, creative, and developmentally appropriate, often involving caregivers to support skill-building at home.
Prior to joining Light On Anxiety, Anna worked in victim services supporting survivors of interpersonal and sexual violence. This experience has deepened her commitment to creating a therapeutic space that’s rooted in safety, respect, and empowerment.
Outside of her profession, Anna enjoys spending her time with her two cats - Stevie and Bowie. She also enjoys exploring the city, trying new restaurants, and traveling.
Meet Jaclyn Brownstone
To schedule an appointment with Light On Anxiety, visit https://lightonanxiety.com/getting-started/
Jaclyn Brownstone is a Licensed Social Worker who earned her Master of Social Work from Smith College School for Social Work. She received her Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Sociology from the University of Colorado Boulder.
Jaclyn works with children, adolescents and adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and major life transitions. She understands how overwhelming it can feel when your thoughts, emotions, or relationships start to feel heavy or stuck, and she values creating a space where clients can slow down, feel understood, and begin to make sense of what they’re carrying.
Her approach blends practical skill-building with deeper relational work. She integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), while also drawing from relational and object relations theory. This allows her to help clients both build tools for managing day-to-day feelings and explore the patterns that shape how they relate to themselves and others.
At the heart of Jaclyn’s practice is collaboration and authenticity. She believes therapy should be a space where individuals feel safe, understood, and empowered to grow. Each person’s story is unique, and she tailors treatment to align with her clients’ goals, values, and lived experiences.
Outside of work, Jaclyn enjoys traveling, spending time outdoors, and being with friends and family.

Slow Breathing Pop-It is a simple, hands-on tool that helps you regulate your breath and calm your body in moments of stress or anxiety. By pressing each bubble in a slow, steady rhythm, you naturally pace your breathing—slowing your inhale and exhale—which signals your nervous system to shift out of fight-or-flight and into a more relaxed state. It’s an easy, portable way to build mindful breathing into your day, whether you’re at home, school, or on the go.
CBT Exercise Cubes are an interactive, hands-on way to practice coping skills and shift unhelpful thought patterns. Each side of the cube prompts a different CBT-based strategy—such as reframing thoughts, grounding in the present moment, or taking a small action step—making it easier to break out of anxious or stuck thinking. By turning the cube and engaging with each prompt, you build flexibility in how you respond to stress, turning insight into action in a simple, approachable way.
