About Aritha

Aritha Yarborough is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and substance-related concerns. She writes in simple, direct terms and aims to create a space where people can learn new ways to cope. Her style centers on partnering with clients to set realistic goals and try practical tools in everyday life.

Aritha draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and build alternatives. She uses client-centered listening to make sure each person’s experience guides the work. Dialectical behavior therapy skills and mindfulness practices are added when emotional regulation and distress tolerance are needed.

She has five years of clinical experience and has worked with a range of ages and life situations. Aritha notes experience supporting individuals with trauma, addictive behaviors, relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, career stress, ADHD, and major mood challenges. Her background also includes work with people facing caregiving strain, chronic health conditions, and loss.

In sessions she emphasizes collaboration. Clients help set the pace, select techniques, and measure progress. Treatment plans are practical and focused on skills people can use between appointments.

Aritha encourages questions about goals and methods up front. People who want to begin are invited to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session to see if the fit feels right.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Aritha uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it breaks difficulties into small, practical steps.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which means sessions begin with listening and follow the client’s priorities. This approach supports people who need time to name goals and feel heard before trying new skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Aritha collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their needs and goals. She will adjust techniques over time based on what is helpful and what is not, so clients play an active role in shaping therapy.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people practice skills between sessions in the settings where they live and work, so techniques can be tested in real life.
