About Anjanette

Anjanette Morton is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in New York who supports people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, relationship difficulties, anger, low self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and compassion fatigue.

Background and approach

She also attends to related concerns such as caregiving stress, family of origin problems, codependency, communication and control issues, dissociation, and substance-related difficulties. With five years of clinical experience, she draws on a breadth of approaches to tailor care to each person’s needs.

Her practice emphasizes collaborative work and respect for the client as the expert on their own life. Anjanette integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), client-centered techniques, and mindfulness practices to help clients identify unhelpful patterns, develop coping strategies, and pursue meaningful changes.

She may also incorporate bibliotherapy and a grounded sense of humor when appropriate. Early sessions focus on building rapport, clarifying current challenges, and setting practical goals.

If the therapeutic fit feels right, she partners with clients to explore underlying contributors to distress and to craft personalized, sustainable tools for managing emotions, navigating life transitions, and fostering greater resilience and well-being.

Approach-focused care delivered online

Many clients benefit from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy because it explores links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches strategies to reduce unhelpful patterns and manage symptoms such as anxiety and depression. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) complements this by focusing on values and flexible responses to difficult internal experiences, which can be useful for grief, chronic stress, or ongoing mood concerns. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy and collaboration, creating space for the client to lead while the therapist provides nonjudgmental support.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences and then tailors techniques from these approaches to fit the situation. This partnership helps to refine the plan over time so interventions stay practical and meaningful.

Online therapy with this clinician is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can increase scheduling flexibility and make it easier to maintain continuity of care across locations. These formats allow licensed professionals to deliver structured interventions, homework-focused work typical of CBT, and regular check-ins in ways that match a client's life and routine.
