More about Anita
- 3 years' experience
- Female
- LMHC
I’m a licensed therapist in New York with three years of experience helping people navigate life’s ups and downs. Whether you’re dealing with stress, anxiety, addiction recovery, low motivation, self-doubt, or big life changes, I’m here to support you. I also understand the weight of compassion fatigue and how caring for others can sometimes leave you feeling drained.
I believe healing is rooted in connection—whether it’s with our loved ones, our communities, or ourselves. You already have strengths that can help you move through life’s challenges, and sometimes, all it takes is the right support to tap into them. Taking the first step toward change isn’t always easy, but you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to walk alongside you with encouragement, warmth, and a space where you can feel truly seen and heard.

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.
