About Anita
Anita Silber Jrade is a Florida licensed mental health counselor, LMHC, with 24 years of experience. She works with adults on relationship worries, low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, parenting strain, and life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.
Anita uses practical approaches to help people manage day-to-day stress and clearer thinking. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to listen and reflect what matters most to each person. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns. Solution-Focused Therapy helps set small, achievable goals and track progress.
Many people come for help with family problems, communication breakdowns, divorce and separation, or to cope with grief and trauma. Anita describes working through intimacy-related issues, workplace stress, and questions of identity and sexuality as common concerns she supports. She also addresses mood disorders, ADHD-related struggles, and anger or control issues.
In sessions she focuses on practical skills: building self-love, improving communication, and creating steps for life transitions. Expect straightforward conversations about patterns, concrete strategies to try between meetings, and regular check-ins on what is changing. Anita aims to help clients notice progress and adjust plans when needed.
Her bilingual ability can help Spanish speakers feel more understood. Prospective clients are asked to confirm current session options before scheduling. To begin, complete the site matching questionnaire and schedule a first session via the online booking flow.
How sessions work
How Anita's approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and reflecting back what matters to the person. Online sessions using this approach focus on clear, paced conversation and checking how each topic lands for the client. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and introduces simple tools to test and change thinking patterns. In an online session CBT often involves short skill-building exercises and homework to try between meetings. Solution-Focused Therapy looks at small, concrete steps and what is already working. Online work with this approach typically sets one or two practical goals and tracks small changes week to week.Choosing an approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before, and then recommend methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as progress is reviewed.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports continuing work through transitions like relocation or changes at work, since therapy can be scheduled around everyday commitments rather than adding extra travel.
