About Aritha

Aritha Yarborough is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who helps people facing stress, grief, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. She speaks plainly and focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Her work also addresses relationship struggles, parenting strain, addiction, and challenges like ADHD and chronic illness.

She believes people often rely on familiar habits when stressed, even if those habits do not help. In sessions she helps people notice those patterns and develop healthier coping skills. Conversations are collaborative and aimed at small, manageable changes rather than quick fixes.

Her clinical background includes five years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. She draws on a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs. That mix can include cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and skills training when emotional regulation is a goal.

Aritha often uses client-centered methods to create a space where a person’s priorities guide the work. She also uses techniques from dialectical behavior therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to support coping and values-based change. The approach is adapted to what the person wants to work on, whether that is grief, trauma, or everyday stress.

She practices in Florida and offers services in English. The focus is on helping people build practical tools to manage life’s challenges and move toward goals at a comfortable pace.

How therapy approaches shape online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings show up. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Mindfulness Therapy emphasizes present-moment awareness and simple practices that lower reactivity and improve emotion regulation.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to a person’s goals and preferences, then suggest techniques to try together. Sessions may shift over time as needs change, and treatment plans are adjusted based on what works for the individual.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can help fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and making it easier to schedule shorter check-ins when needed. Virtual sessions also let people use mindfulness exercises, skills coaching, and cognitive work from familiar surroundings, which can make practicing new tools between appointments more practical.
