About Anita

Anita Herbulock is a licensed clinical social worker who grounds her practice in collaborative, client-centered care with a strong emphasis on cognitive behavioral techniques.

Background and approach

With 20 years of experience practicing in Pennsylvania, she helps people address stress and anxiety, work through grief and loss, and manage addictions while also focusing on motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. Herbulock creates an open environment where clients can explore thoughts and feelings without judgment and develop practical strategies to cope with life changes.

She integrates evidence-informed tools such as CBT to identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns, and she draws on approaches like EMDR and motivational interviewing when appropriate to the client’s needs. Her style balances empathy with concrete skill building to help clients move toward clearer goals.

Clients who choose her practice can expect steady support in navigating emotional challenges, improving communication, and addressing issues related to family, parenting, career, anger, and ADHD. She frames the work as a partnership, encouraging each person to take steps toward a more fulfilling and manageable life at a pace that suits them.

Approach-Focused Care Delivered Online

Clients can expect interventions that are practical and tailored to their needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to help identify unhelpful thought patterns and build coping skills for issues like anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy and a nonjudgmental relationship, creating space for clients to explore feelings and find their own solutions. EMDR is also part of her toolkit and can be used to address traumatic memories through guided processing when appropriate.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to consider their goals, preferences, and responses to different techniques, adjusting methods over time so the work fits the client rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make access more flexible. These formats allow for consistent scheduling around work and family life, straightforward follow-up between sessions, and the ability to continue care from different locations within Pennsylvania. Licensed professionals guide the sessions and adapt exercises and homework to the online setting so clients can apply strategies in daily life.
