About Anchetta

Anchetta Sutton offers support for stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, family concerns, depression, grief, anger, low self-esteem, coping with life changes, coaching, and ADHD. She keeps conversations straightforward and practical. Her approach aims to help people notice what they think and try small changes that make daily life easier.

Anchetta creates a calm space where clients can say what they need to say without pressure. She brings eight years as a licensed social worker to her sessions and a longer history in helping roles.

Background and approach

Anchetta combines client-centered listening with hands-on techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused methods. She also uses mindfulness tools to help people ground attention and manage stress in the moment. Her work often touches on adoption and foster care, family of origin issues, family problems, and forgiveness.

She also supports concerns around guilt and shame, postpartum depression, pregnancy and childbirth, and women's issues. These topics are addressed with practical steps and respect for each person's values. Anchetta holds LISW and LCSW credentials.

She is based in South Carolina and conducts sessions in English. Her style is direct and compassionate, aiming to help clients set clear goals and try concrete strategies between meetings. To begin, she asks clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on therapist availability.

Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and session cost varies with location and therapist availability.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on paying close attention to the person in front of the therapist. It emphasizes listening, empathy, and helping the client set their own goals. This approach can help people feel understood and able to speak openly about family and life concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It teaches simple skills to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and habit changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and daily routines and then try methods that fit. If something does not feel helpful, they will adjust the plan collaboratively.

Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more adaptable. These options let people fit sessions around parenting, work, or medical appointments. They also make it easier to check in between meetings with short messages or chat when that helps progress.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
