About Anjanette
Anjanette Morton offers support for people dealing with stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, grief, depression, anger, low self-esteem, bipolar symptoms, and major life changes. She is a licensed mental health counselor, LMHC, based in New York and speaks English. Anjanette presents a calm, steady presence that helps people begin difficult conversations and find practical ways forward.
She prefers to work collaboratively, with the client guiding the goals and pace. Sessions often begin by identifying immediate concerns and figuring out which skills or perspectives will help right now.
How Anjanette works
Anjanette mixes structured tools with reflective conversation so people can both feel heard and practice new ways of coping. Her approach pulls from cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, client-centered methods, and mindfulness. That means she may help a person notice unhelpful thinking, try small behavior changes, practice acceptance of hard feelings, and build moment-to-moment coping skills.
She also uses reading suggestions and occasional humor when helpful. In the early sessions she focuses on understanding what matters most to the client and building practical skills to reduce distress. Later work can include examining patterns that keep problems repeating and creating a personalized plan to manage symptoms over time.
Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person’s readiness. Anjanette has five years of clinical experience and supports additional concerns such as caregiver stress, codependency, communication problems, dissociation, domestic violence, substance issues, aging and geriatric questions, and family of origin difficulties.

Online support options
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It encourages identifying personal values and taking small actions that move toward those values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and testing different behaviors to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds skills for managing intense emotions, improving communication, and tolerating distress in the moment.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean trying one approach for a few sessions and adjusting as progress is reviewed.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a quieter voice-only check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins, skill practice between sessions, and people who prefer writing over speaking. These options increase flexibility and make ongoing work more accessible for many people.
