About Aritha

Aritha Yarborough is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who aims to help people build more effective ways to cope with life’s disruptions. She focuses on practical skills for managing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, relationship and family concerns, and ADHD among other issues.

Background and approach

Aritha draws on five years of clinical experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families to tailor care to each person's situation. Her work emphasizes collaboration and skill-building, blending evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness practices, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and client-centered principles.

She also brings experience addressing issues like trauma, self-esteem, anger, career concerns, parenting challenges, and co-occurring disorders, as well as additional focuses including adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and blended family dynamics. Aritha practices in Florida and offers services in English, with availability for international clients.

She invites clients to participate actively in creating a treatment plan that fits their goals and circumstances, emphasizing practical strategies to increase resilience and support meaningful change.

Approaches That Guide Online Work and Practical Support



Aritha often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors; this approach is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday challenges. She also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on clarifying personal values and building psychological flexibility so people can move toward meaningful goals even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and will be shaped collaboratively. She works with clients to choose and adapt methods based on their goals, preferences, and the specific problems they bring, adjusting techniques as progress is made and circumstances change.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These formats allow scheduling that fits work, family, and travel demands and support ongoing skill practice between meetings, which many clients find helpful for integrating therapeutic tools into daily life.
