About Anthony

How Anthony works
Anthony blends several methods to match each person's needs. He commonly uses client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindful awareness, and emotionally focused approaches. That mix is used to address mood, behavior, communication, and coping after loss or trauma.
Across his work he also focuses on issues like abandonment, blended family concerns, caregiver stress, codependency, commitment and communication problems, control issues, and family of origin wounds. He has supported people facing domestic violence, substance use, first responder stress, and recovery from disasters. Anthony earned a master’s degree in community counseling and holds an Alaska LPC credential.
He offers sessions in English and provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches that adapt to online care
Client-Centered Therapy centers on active listening and on shaping sessions around what a person says matters most. This approach helps people feel heard and guides the therapist to follow the client’s lead on goals and pacing.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses short exercises and homework to change patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and addictive behaviors.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify and shift patterns in close relationships. It is useful when communication breakdowns, commitment worries, or attachment wounds are part of the problem.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. That may mean combining listening-focused work with CBT exercises or adding mindfulness practice for emotion regulation.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions are good for face-to-face conversation and guided exercises. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and text messaging allow quick check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to attend appointments and to try techniques in everyday life.
