About Anjanette

Anjanette Morton, LMHC, helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, depression, and major life changes. She also supports those facing caregiver strain and aging and geriatric issues. Her tone is warm and direct, and she aims to create a calm space where clients can talk through what feels hard right now.

She uses a mix of practical tools drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Sessions focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts, practicing skills for emotion regulation, and clarifying values to guide change. Humor and reading suggestions are used when helpful to reinforce new ways of coping.

Therapy with her is collaborative. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and works alongside them to set goals. Early sessions are about getting a clear picture of current struggles and identifying priorities to address together.

Over time the work moves from understanding patterns to testing small changes. That might involve learning techniques to manage overwhelming feelings, building routines that reduce stress, or practicing communication strategies to handle relationship strain. The aim is steady, workable progress rather than quick fixes.

She brings five years of clinical experience and holds a Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential in New York. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist's availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and commit to small actions that match those values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and life transitions because it focuses on purposeful steps rather than getting stuck in avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and shows concrete ways to test and change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching skills to manage symptoms and daily challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. Sessions begin with a conversation about current needs, and the plan is adjusted as progress happens so the fit can evolve over time.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Many people find online therapy useful for fitting sessions into busy schedules, reducing travel time, and maintaining continuity during life changes. Online meetings can make it easier to check in during a lunch break, use shorter sessions for brief skill practice, or avoid the time needed to commute. Licensed professionals can guide practical skill-building, mindfulness practice, and cognitive work effectively in remote sessions when format and scheduling meet the client's needs.
