About Anquitra

Anquitra Walton is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with four years of experience. She focuses on common struggles such as stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, grief, anger, and compassion fatigue. She also addresses relationship concerns, self-esteem, career issues, trauma and abuse, and coping with life changes.

Sessions are offered in English. Walton favors practical therapies that help people notice patterns and try small changes. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness to help clients spot unhelpful thoughts and practice new ways of responding.

Background and approach

She also draws from Client-Centered and Solution-Focused techniques to tailor plans to each person’s needs. Her style values an honest, two-way relationship. Feedback from the person in therapy helps shape each step.

Together they set goals and adjust the plan as needed. Walton aims to keep things clear and doable so progress feels realistic. She has worked in a range of settings, including teletherapy, in-home care, community programs, intensive substance abuse work in corrections, and inpatient services.

That range informs her flexibility with different life situations and stressors. For parents and caregivers seeking help around family and parenting concerns, she brings a straightforward approach. Sessions focus on concrete tools, coping strategies, and clear steps to try between meetings.

The overall aim is to move toward more stable day-to-day functioning and better responses to stress.

Approaches that fit online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful relationship. The therapist follows the client's lead and uses feedback to shape sessions, which helps people feel heard and involved in their own plan.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches simple skills to challenge unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and mood concerns.

Mindfulness Therapy trains attention and present-moment awareness. It supports managing stress, strong emotions, and reactions to difficult memories by learning how to notice thoughts and feelings without immediately acting on them.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose and adjust methods based on needs, goals, and preferences. That ongoing conversation helps tailor sessions so techniques feel useful and realistic.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Those options make it easier to fit sessions around family schedules, work, and other responsibilities. They also allow the therapist to share exercises and tools that clients can practice between meetings, helping maintain momentum when life gets busy.

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.
