Background and approach
She often offers reading suggestions and gentle humor when appropriate to keep work grounded and relatable. Therapy with her focuses on collaboration. She treats the person in front of her as the expert and helps set goals together.
Sessions typically involve looking at thoughts and behaviors, practicing new skills, and trying small experiments between meetings. Her background includes five years of clinical experience and a license as an LMHC in New York. That experience includes helping people cope with life changes, caregiver stress, compulsion and substance concerns, relationship and communication problems, and feelings of emptiness or dissociation.

Therapeutic Approaches Applied to Online Care
Anjanette commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in her work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and acting to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and taking meaningful action despite discomfort.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist and client work together to decide what fits best based on the persons goals, challenges, and preferences. That collaborative planning can include mixing elements from different approaches to match a clients needs.
Online formats can make attending therapy easier. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill practice, phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or a camera isnt preferred, live chat can offer shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and varied situations while still working on concrete goals and skills.
