Anquinette Wiggins, LPMHC - Therapist in Delaware

About Anquinette

Anquinette Wiggins is a licensed professional mental health counselor with 18 years of clinical experience in Delaware. She moved into counseling after a long corporate career and now focuses on practical support for families and individuals facing everyday challenges. Her approach is calm and straightforward, aimed at helping parents and caregivers find workable ways forward.

She talks plainly and listens closely to what matters most to each person. She draws on several therapeutic methods to meet different needs.

Background and approach

Cognitive behavioral therapy helps break unhelpful patterns and build small, realistic steps. Attachment-based ideas guide work around family bonds and long-standing relationship patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports people in clarifying values and handling difficult feelings without getting stuck.

Sessions usually focus on concrete goals. That can include managing stress, addressing depression or anxiety, navigating grief, or handling parenting and family tensions. She also helps with issues like trauma and abuse, caregiver fatigue, and life or career transitions.

The tone stays practical and respectful, with an eye toward real change in daily life. Clients can expect a collaborative process where choices and preferences shape the work. Anquinette uses a mix of listening, reflection, and skill-building so people can try new ways of coping.

Her practice aims to make therapy understandable and usable for busy families. She offers help in English and works with adults in Delaware. For next steps she asks that people complete a short questionnaire and schedule a session to begin the match process.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without letting those experiences take over. It emphasizes clear values and small actions that move someone toward a meaningful life, which can help with stress, anxiety, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape reactions and security. It is useful when family patterns, bonding, or caregiving relationships are at the center of the concern. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It often targets depression, anxiety, and routines that interfere with daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, needs, and preferences and then choose methods together. This collaborative process means techniques can be adjusted as progress is made or new challenges appear.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy families and caregivers. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from home, phone sessions remove the need for video, and live chat or text messaging can be used for short check-ins or when scheduling is tight. These formats make it easier to fit regular sessions into a busy life and to keep momentum between meetings.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

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.
