Hi, I am Anita and appreciate you stopping by to learn more about me. Both my undergraduate and graduate degrees are in social work. I have been practicing for 15 years in a variety of ways. I have spent 10 years working within short- and long-term addiction rehabilitation facilities, outpatient therapy in clinical setting with children and adults, therapist for Drug Court, children and families in school setting before entering private practice. I have enjoyed working with people from all different backgrounds and walks of life. I am very flexible and easy to communicate with whether it be verbal or written. My treatment approach is client centered and solution focused while utilizing motivational interviewing. I also utilized cognitive behavior techniques integrated with the others. If you think this would be a good fit for you, reach out to me. It doesn't hurt to try. I am looking forward to hearing from you!

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

She helps bring to the surface things that I might have a hard time explaining, from there she offers me solutions and task to work on which I am incredibly thankful for
I am so grateful for Anita Coffey's calm demeanor, perceptive concern and wise counsel. She works along-side her clients. If you are ready to "re-boot" your attitude & confidence and make positive improvements in your day-to-day life, I would highly recommend a therapist whom I both respect, and appreciate...Anita Coffey.

Anita is very kind and attentive. She reaches out almost instantly. She makes me feel like I’m her only client!
Anita truly helped me through the most difficult time in my life. She was always caring and kind. I always felt comfortable in communicating with her in our sessions. Anita helped me gain new perspectives and provided the encouragement I needed. Anita has been such a blessing to my life, and I am so thankful for her!
I felt so much better just after one session with Anita. She let me vent and made me feel validated in what I was going through. I really needed that to get through everything. She is amazing.
She is awesome and honest. She's great!
Thank you for counseling and the book recommendation. Looking forward for the meeting tomorrow.
