About Anjanette

Anjanette Morton is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in New York with five years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, relationship strain, anger, low self-esteem, bipolar concerns, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue. Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients.

Anjanette uses practical, evidence-informed methods. She draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness practices to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to clarify values and build committed action. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are included when emotional regulation and distress tolerance are needed.

In sessions she aims to work collaboratively. Early meetings focus on what feels most urgent and what a person wants to change. Conversations often include concrete exercises, skill-building and short homework to test new ways of coping between sessions.

Anjanette incorporates reading suggestions and a light touch of humor when it fits the person’s style. She describes therapy as a process of testing out new approaches rather than quick fixes. Progress is tracked through simple goals and practical steps that can fit into busy days.

People who prefer clear tools and short, actionable practices may find this approach useful. The first appointment is used to review current concerns, set goals, and agree on next steps for ongoing work.

How her methods translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts without getting stuck in them and choosing actions that match personal values; this can help when avoidance and anxiety limit day-to-day life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down situations, thought patterns, and behaviors into concrete steps to test new responses and reduce symptoms over time. Mindfulness therapy adds brief attention practices to reduce reactivity and improve moment-to-moment awareness.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will review goals and try methods that fit the person’s needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process, so adjustments are made based on what proves useful in practice.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Many people find that having sessions from a familiar location helps them practice skills between meetings and apply tools to real-life situations.
