About Anita
Anita Herbulock is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 20 years of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, and self-esteem concerns. She speaks plainly and aims to make the first step feel manageable for a worried parent exploring options. Her style is warm and practical.
She creates a calm space where people can share thoughts and feelings without judgment. Sessions focus on what matters most to the client and on small, doable steps.
Background and approach
Anita uses clear tools to build motivation and confidence over time. Her background includes long-term work with adults facing life transitions, mood struggles, and addictive behaviors. She offers help for parenting concerns by supporting parents who feel overwhelmed, uncertain, or burned out.
Anita also addresses career stress, anger, and attention-related challenges. In therapy she blends client-centered listening with techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to notice unhelpful thinking and shift behavior. She may use solution-focused methods to set short-term goals and EMDR when trauma memories are part of the picture.
Motivational interviewing helps when change feels hard. People can expect direct, gentle feedback and practical homework between sessions. Anita emphasizes small experiments that fit daily life.
Her approach aims to reduce worry, increase coping, and restore a sense of control.

How Anita’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client, helping people feel understood and able to name priorities. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, EMDR, is used when past upsetting memories keep showing up and getting in the way; it works by processing those memories so they carry less emotional weight.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Anita will listen to each person’s goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. Decisions about which techniques to use are collaborative and can change as progress happens.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video works well for in-depth conversations and learning new skills. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or to fit a break at work. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins, quick skill practice, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and keep momentum between appointments.
