About Anjanette

Anjanette Morton is a New York Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with five years of clinical experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, trauma and abuse, relationship struggles, anger, low self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and the difficulty of major life changes. Anjanette also focuses on compassion fatigue and a range of related concerns such as caregiver stress, family of origin issues, codependency, and communication problems.

Her way of working is collaborative and straightforward. Sessions begin by identifying the problems and goals a person brings. From there, she uses a mix of practical skills and discussion to notice unhelpful thinking, test new behaviors, and build simple coping tools. Humor and reading assignments are added when they fit the work.

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, client-centered techniques, and mindfulness practices. That mix is used to help people manage emotions, change patterns that no longer serve them, and handle crises or ongoing stressors. Conversations are paced to each person’s needs and readiness.

Anjanette welcomes international clients and conducts work in English. For someone feeling stuck after a job change, breakup, health event, or caregiving shift, she offers focused sessions to sort priorities and try practical steps forward. To begin, a short questionnaire and an initial scheduling step are used to set up the first session.

Cost varies with location and uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Sessions take place from her New York practice and follow the approaches described above.

Approaches used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that reflect their values. It can be useful when someone feels directionless after a life change and needs a way to move forward without waiting for certainty.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing thought and behavior patterns that keep problems going. It often includes short experiments and practical exercises to reduce anxiety, depression, and addiction-related behaviors.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and handling relationship stress. These skills can be helpful for people dealing with anger, intense mood swings, or impulse challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose which methods to try based on current needs, goals, and what feels most useful. That choice can shift over time as goals and circumstances change.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time for appointments. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT, ACT, and DBT techniques for remote work so the sessions focus on practical skills, tracking progress, and planning next steps.
