About Anquinette
Anquinette Wiggins is a licensed professional mental health counselor (LPMHC) based in Delaware. She moved into counseling after a long corporate career and now brings 18 years of clinical experience to her practice. She welcomes straightforward conversations about stress, grief, family concerns, and mood challenges.
Her style is grounded and person-focused. Sessions center on each person’s story and goals, not on one-size-fits-all solutions. She draws from narrative ideas to help people reframe their life stories and from cognitive behavioral tools for practical steps.
Background and approach
Attachment-informed work guides how she looks at close relationships and patterns that repeat. Anquinette often supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, depression, anxiety, ADHD, and caregiver or compassion fatigue. She also helps with parenting stress, relationship and intimacy-related issues, grief, and career transitions.
Additional interests include adoption and foster care, aging and geriatric concerns, chronic illness and pain, and family of origin issues. Sessions use everyday language and focus on clear, achievable changes. She blends understanding of past patterns with hands-on strategies to change behavior and feel better day to day.
The approach aims to respect each person’s values and life goals while identifying concrete steps forward. Her practice offers several remote formats that suit different schedules and comfort levels, and she conducts work in English. Prospective clients are asked to complete an initial matching questionnaire to begin the process.

Remote approaches that focus on story and action
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what they value and take small actions toward those values even when emotions are difficult. It is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and life transitions where getting unstuck matters. Narrative Therapy pays attention to the stories people tell about themselves and looks for alternate, more helpful ways to tell those stories so patterns shift over time. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and close relationships shape expectations and behavior, and it helps people change repeating patterns in relationships. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, values, and comfort. That can mean shifting between narrative exploration, ACT exercises, and practical cognitive-behavioral tools as needed. Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which let people fit therapy into busy lives. Video is helpful for deeper conversation and visual connection. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat or messaging can be useful for shorter updates, homework check-ins, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to keep continuity of care while balancing work, family, and other demands.Common questions about this listing
