About me
Hi, I’m Anthony — a therapist who truly believes you deserve to feel seen, heard, and accepted exactly as you are. Life can get overwhelming (and let’s be honest, it’s felt especially unhinged lately). Whether you're part of the LGBTQIA+ community, an ally, or just someone navigating identity, anxiety, trauma, relationships, or the stress of simply existing in today’s world — you’re not alone. My ideal client is someone who’s tired of pretending to be okay, tired of masking or managing everything on their own, and who’s maybe been told they’re “too much” for feeling deeply. You might be craving connection, clarity, or just the space to finally be your full self without judgment. Therapy with me isn’t about “fixing” you — it’s about creating a safe, compassionate space to unpack what feels heavy, sort through what’s no longer serving you, and move toward a more authentic and grounded version of your life.
My approach combines cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and somatic-based practices to help you manage anxiety, reconnect with your inner strengths, and feel more grounded in your body and your choices. I’m trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and always curious — not just about your struggles, but about what makes you you. I love working with people who are in the brave, often complicated process of figuring themselves out — whether you’re brand new to therapy or looking for something that finally feels like a good fit. I especially enjoy working with LGBTQIA+ folks and allies navigating identity, relationships, and life transitions. If you’re looking for a therapist who’s real, approachable, and ready to meet you exactly where you are, I’d be honored to walk alongside you. You don’t have to do this alone — let’s talk.
