About Anjanette

Anjanette Morton is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, addiction, trauma, and the emotional sides of pregnancy and childbirth. She brings a calm, open presence and aims to make sessions feel welcoming and down-to-earth. Her style is patient and nonjudgmental, with an emphasis on practical steps you can use between visits.

She relies on straightforward, evidence-informed methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques and acceptance-based practices. Conversations focus on what is happening now and on small changes that reduce distress. She also weaves in mindfulness skills and moments of lightness when appropriate to ease hard topics.

Therapy is framed as a partnership where the client guides the work. Early meetings cover current struggles and goals so later sessions can target the root of problems and build useful skills. Sessions often include exercises to practice coping, mood regulation, and clearer communication outside of therapy.

With five years of clinical experience, Anjanette has supported people through major life transitions, caregiving stress, relationship strain, and substance concerns. She describes herself as empathetic and respectful, keeping the conversation focused on what the client values and wants to change. She encourages realistic, step-by-step progress rather than quick fixes.

People interested in starting are invited to share their concerns and goals, and to discuss how therapy might fit into their routine. Anjanette works from a collaborative, skills-oriented approach that aims to reduce overwhelm and increase everyday functioning.

How her approaches fit with online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and learning to act in ways that matter despite difficult thoughts or feelings; it is useful for anxiety, grief, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches specific skills to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with depression, addictions, and mood regulation. Mindfulness Therapy offers simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and strengthen present-moment awareness for stress and trauma symptoms.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals and preferences, try techniques, and adjust the mix of ACT, CBT, and mindfulness skills so work feels helpful and relevant.

Confirm the session formats before booking because the profile does not list them. Many people choose online therapy for convenience - it can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving, or medical appointments. Online sessions can also allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let participants use audio-only or on-camera options depending on what feels best. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and mindfulness practices to work well in an online setting, with a focus on making therapy usable in everyday life.
