About Aritha

Aritha Yarborough helps people who are feeling stuck by focusing on practical change and steady support. She meets clients where they are and works with them on clear goals like reducing anxiety, managing stress, improving relationships, or coping with loss. Aritha uses straightforward language and simple tools so progress feels doable day to day.

Aritha is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, which she uses to guide her practice in Florida.

Background and approach

She has five years of experience and has helped people facing depression, trauma and abuse, addictions, bipolar mood concerns, grief, and challenges with self-esteem. She also supports people managing parenting stress, work transitions, and relationship strain. Her approach draws on methods that teach skills and encourage new habits.

She often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and change them. Mindfulness practices help people slow down and notice reactions without judgment. Aritha also uses client-centered principles to shape the work around each person’s priorities.

Sessions include collaborative goal-setting and practical homework to try between meetings. When needed, elements of dialectical behavior therapy are added to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. Sessions tend to focus on small, actionable steps that fit into real life.

Aritha explains options, listens to what matters most, and adjusts plans as progress is made. She welcomes conversations about how therapy can fit into a client’s schedule and daily routine.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches that work well online

Aritha often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy when working with clients. ACT focuses on clarifying values and taking committed steps toward them while building tolerance for difficult feelings, which can help with grief, anxiety, and coping with life changes. CBT helps people spot and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which is useful for depression, anxiety, and stress management.

She frames the choice of approach as a team effort. The therapist and client talk about goals, try methods, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. That collaborative process makes it easier to find tools that fit a person’s daily life and priorities.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video lets people work face to face when needed, phone can be a quicker check-in or better when bandwidth is limited, and messaging works for short updates or ongoing coaching between meetings. These options support flexible scheduling and make it easier to keep momentum while managing a busy life.
