About Anjanette

Anjanette Morton is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, relationship struggles, anger, self-esteem, bipolar concerns, and coping with life changes. She also works with people wrestling with compassion fatigue and codependency patterns.

Anjanette uses clear, practical methods in sessions. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), client-centered work, and mindfulness methods. Conversations are collaborative and paced to the person’s needs.

In early meetings she listens to current challenges and the goals a person brings. Sessions include talking through patterns, identifying thoughts and behaviors that cause strain, and practicing new ways to respond. She may suggest reading material or brief exercises to try between visits.

She describes therapy as a team effort where the person is the expert on their life. The therapist offers guidance, reflection, and tools aimed at manageable change. Humor and straightforward feedback are used when helpful.

Anjanette pays attention to how past experiences shape everyday reactions. Work may include addressing family of origin issues, coping with loss, substance concerns, or feeling overwhelmed by caregiving. She supports people who have trouble saying no, who put others first, or who are trying to set clearer boundaries.

Sessions are grounded in everyday language and practical skills. People can expect calm assessments of problems, step-by-step strategies, and options to try between sessions. The emphasis is on learning to respond differently to stress and relationship pressures.

How sessions work

How her therapeutic approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that align with their values. It is useful for anxiety, avoidance, and situations where someone feels stuck in old patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches concrete skills for changing thinking and behavior that contribute to stress, depression, or relationship conflict.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean trying a CBT skill in one session and a mindfulness or ACT exercise in the next, then adjusting based on what helps.

Specific online session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. People often appreciate the ability to use reading or brief homework between sessions and to practice skills in the context of their everyday routine.
