Evidence-based approaches and online sessions
Anthony works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Cognitive approaches help people notice and test thoughts that drive shame or guilt and practice alternative, less distressing ways of interpreting events. These methods are often used for anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem.He also uses trauma-informed methods that pay attention to how past events affect present reactions. These approaches help people understand triggers, reduce reactivity, and develop grounding and safety skills to manage intense emotions related to trauma and abuse.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Anthony will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. He aims to explain different options and adjust plans based on what helps in practice.
