Feeling "stuck" in areas of your life: school, relationships, work, or family can leave you feeling hopeless and in despair. It may also create feelings of anxiety, sadness, fear, loneliness and distress. We are all capable of improving the quality of our lives when we learn how to embrace challenges and overcome obstacles/self-doubts in order to create opportunities. I provide a warm, safe, and supportive environment in which my clients can explore the issues and challenges they face. Anthony approaches therapy with an understanding that problems don't get created in a vacuum.

My therapeutic practice includes individual, group,and couples counseling to those who need guidance navigating through crisis and conflicts, grief, depression and other emotional life issues. I also offer specialized training in addiction counseling. Psychotherapy is an effective tool in addressing issues that interfere with recovery. People struggling with addictions, and their loved ones, greatly benefit from therapy that guides them to a deeper insight than with 12-step work alone. As a recovering professional, I utilize an array of tools to assist clients, bringing into the therapeutic process my own 25-year recovery history with various types of recovery experience.

Kate Braestrup says it best: "I'm not here to keep you from freaking out. I'm here to be with you while you freak out, or grieve or laugh or suffer or sing. It is a ministry of presence. It is showing up with a loving heart." I truly believe that everyone could benefit from psychotherapy at some point in their lives -- we all need support. Taking the step towards seeking help of any kind can sometimes be difficult. I consider it a privilege to be chosen to walk out life's challenges with you.

I believe that life is a journey that we travel with people that aid us in our growth and development. As we sit together talking and sharing, we discover new perspectives and insights about ourselves and life. Because we see life through the lenses of our experiences, emotions and beliefs, there are times when we need someone to listen and help us sort through our thoughts. From a strength based, holistic, and collaborative approach we can explore your journey, where you've been, where you are now and where you would like to go.

My commitment to reach those who are experiencing great sadness and a lack of motivation in their lives helps me to understand my clients' alienation and pain. I take it as my duty to foster a relationship with those in need and reach them on their level. With couples, I use emotionally focused therapy (EFT) to help clients change their negative patterns and move to a new music where they yearn to support each other.

It’s truly incredible when a person sees that there’s something inside them that they want to work on, and then they go after that. It’s incredible that you’re here, that you’re searching. The people who want to be the best version of themselves, who want to break “generational traumas” and work on their mental health so that they can pass down health, wholeness, peace, and light to the next generation - those are the superheroes. Our mental health is our foundation for how we relate to ourselves and world around us after all - Our God, ourselves, and others.

Is anger or a lack of trust ruining your relationship? You might have asked yourself should I stay in this relationship or should I go? Do your thoughts revolve around a past that haunts you? You may find yourself crying when nobody is watching. You might feel lost without your loved one in your life. Do you notice yourself snapping at those around you that you love? You may be telling yourself I just don't feel like myself anymore.You might have even told yourself I have just had it and can not take it anymore.

Do you see a pattern in your relationship, career, or life choices? Do you feel you are "going through the motions" and success - as you define it - continues to elude you? Perhaps fear, stress, anxiety, or depression are appearing? Are you feeling stuck in the human experience? Self-sabotaging tactics or traumatic experiences can make anyone feel like they are on the sidelines of life rather than being fully "on their game." Even the strongest of us all have a need for support. Not only is counseling my career, it is my passion and calling. I consider myself a bridge to helping people grow into the best version of themselves.

Life can be hard. Sometimes we have difficulty communicating with our boss or loved ones. Sometimes we have difficulty adjusting to new circumstances. At times, we may feel stuck and unsure of how to initiate change. Other times we may want to delve deeper and truly understand our motivations and desires. Sometimes we just want to feel heard. I strive to create a space safe where my clients feel comfortable sharing. I actively engage in conversation with my clients, meet them where they are and work collaboratively with them to bridge the gap between their current state of being and living their most fulfilled lives.

Gottman Method Therapists

How does the Gottman method work?

One of the core doctrines of the Gottman method is that negative emotions hurt relationships about five times more than positive emotions help them. Thus, couples require five times more positive interactions than negative interactions with each other. The therapist will guide clients on how to improve communication and understanding of each other to manage conflict and have their emotional needs met. The therapist will also advise couples on how to repair relations with each other when conflict arises, and therefore avoid lasting damage.

Is the Gottman method evidence-based?

Yes, this method is an evidence-based approach to couples therapy. The method is based on more than 40 years of research by Drs. John and Julie Gottman, the psychologists who developed the method. The Gottmans analyzed decades of data to draw conclusions about what types of interactions are likely to lead to specific results, and which interventions are most likely to lead to success. Studies have found that this approach leads to improvements in relationship satisfaction, intimacy, communication skills, and a lower rate of divorce.

How long does the Gottman method take?

The duration of treatment depends on the specific challenges clients face. Sessions are typically 60 to 90 minutes long, and an average course of treatment is around 10 sessions. In some cases, such as for couples dealing with a critical problem, the therapist will suggest an intensive course of treatment, with daily sessions over the first two to four days. Treatment is complete when the couple is satisfied and has met the goals they’ve set, and when the therapist believes they have the skills to continue on their own.

Is the Gottman method effective?

Through the Gottman method, couples can achieve changes that are real and sustainable. This treatment has been used for more than 40 years; the method is supported by empirical research, including randomized controlled trials that have demonstrated effectiveness in improving relationship outcomes for couples. Like any talk therapy, success or failure depends in large part on how committed the clients are to making positive changes and working toward results.
