About Anniesha
Dr. Anniesha Walker greets people who are facing change, loss, or ongoing stress with calm and practical support. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and she helps people cope with anxiety, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, career shifts, and other life changes.
Her style is straightforward and compassionate, aimed at making the first steps feel manageable. She brings 24 years of experience in hospital, school, and community mental health settings.
Background and approach
That background means she is used to working with a wide range of problems and with people from varied backgrounds. She pays attention to faith, culture, and past trauma when shaping a plan for each person. In sessions she combines approaches to match what a person needs.
She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thinking and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people move toward meaningful values. Attachment ideas and client-centered listening guide how she builds trust and explores relationship patterns. Her work often focuses on practical goals such as improving coping skills, managing worry, handling anger, navigating fertility or career decisions, and building self-esteem.
She also supports people dealing with compassion fatigue and the special stresses faced by young adults. People can expect a collaborative process where small steps and homework between sessions are used to make progress. She aims to help clients notice change, try different responses, and feel more able to handle life’s demands.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and how they fit online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small actions in that direction despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It is useful for worry, life changes, and finding motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. It often involves small exercises to practice between sessions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships shape current patterns and helps people build healthier ways of relating to others and themselves.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to goals and try methods that match those needs. If something isn’t working, she will adjust the tools and create a plan that fits the client’s preferences and pace in a collaborative way.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video fits deeper conversations and body language cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is a concern. Live chat or text messaging can work for brief check-ins, coaching-style support, and quick skill practice between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep progress moving forward.
