    About Anita

    Anita Herbulock is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 20 years of experience helping people move forward. She focuses on practical steps clients can use to reduce stress, manage anxiety, and handle life transitions. Anita aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where people can talk honestly about what’s on their mind.

    She uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find internal reasons to change, and blends that with client-centered care to keep sessions focused on each person’s goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used when it makes sense to change unhelpful thinking patterns and build new habits.

    Anita has worked with people facing addictions, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and the everyday stress of work and family life. She also addresses concerns such as ADHD, communication problems, codependency, and issues tied to aging and women’s health.

    Her approach is down-to-earth and practical. Sessions tend to focus on small, doable steps and skills you can use between meetings. Anita encourages collaboration so clients help shape the goals and pace of therapy.

    People who prefer clear, goal-oriented work often find this style helpful. Anita supports clients through problem solving, building motivation, and developing coping strategies that fit real life. If you want a straightforward conversation about change, she can help guide the process.

  2. How therapy approaches translate to online care

    Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change. Online sessions using this approach focus on asking open questions, reflecting what you say, and helping you set realistic next steps. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and understanding the person’s perspective so the conversation stays focused on individual goals and values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety or depressive patterns.

    Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will ask about goals, what has helped before, and what feels doable. Then she and the client decide collaboratively which methods to try and how fast to move forward.

    If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. The practical benefits often cited include fitting sessions into a busy schedule, avoiding travel time, and being able to schedule shorter check-ins when needed. Online conversations can make it easier to practice skills between meetings and to maintain steady contact during life transitions. Licensed professionals will help tailor session length and focus so therapy fits into everyday life.
