Aritha Yarborough, LCSW

Aritha Yarborough is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship strain. She also supports those coping with trauma, addiction concerns, parenting challenges, and life changes. Her approach is straightforward and practical, aimed at helping people find better ways to manage hard moments.

She begins by listening to what matters most to each person. Then she collaborates on small, realistic steps clients can try between sessions. Aritha uses clear strategies to build coping skills, manage strong emotions, and address unhelpful thinking patterns.

Aritha has five years of clinical experience and has worked with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families across a range of concerns. She combines several approaches rather than relying on a single method, and she adapts the work to each person’s goals and life context.

Her toolbox includes techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and mindfulness practices. These are used to teach coping skills, improve communication, and support problem solving.

Clients can expect a collaborative relationship where progress is tracked and plans are adjusted as needed. Aritha practices in Florida as an LCSW and welcomes people who want guided support in making changes and handling life’s ups and downs.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It is useful for stress, low mood, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, which can help with anxiety, depression, and coping skills. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens and follows the client’s lead to support growth and self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Aritha will talk with each person about goals and preferences and try methods that fit their situation. That process is collaborative and adjusted over time based on what is helpful.

Confirm current session options before booking, since the biography does not list formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Many people find virtual sessions let them practice skills where they live and apply coping strategies between meetings, and therapists can adapt exercises and homework to an online setting.
