About Anthony
Anthony Hodges is a California-licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with seven years of clinical experience. He helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and big life changes. Sessions are offered in English and he accepts international clients.
Anthony focuses on straightforward conversation and practical skills. He listens to the problems that bring someone into therapy and then builds a plan together. That plan can include ways to reduce tension, manage reactions, and rebuild confidence over time.
In sessions he uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide work on emotions and behavior. He aims to break down problems into clear steps and to practice new habits that feel doable. People often work on spotting triggers, changing unhelpful thought patterns, and trying different coping strategies between meetings.
Anthony adapts the pace to each person. He talks through what is getting in the way now and what small changes might help most. He encourages responsibility for how people respond to stress while acknowledging that strong feelings are common and understandable.
Starting therapy with him involves a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling the first session. He emphasizes practical next steps so people can try new approaches and check whether they help.
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Anthony uses evidence-based techniques that focus on changing thoughts and behaviors. Cognitive-style approaches involve noticing and testing unhelpful thoughts, then trying alternative ways of thinking to reduce stress and anxiety. These techniques help when worry or negative self-talk keeps someone stuck.Behavioral and skills-based work is another component. That includes learning practical coping strategies, practicing new reactions to triggers, and building small habits that reduce anger and improve confidence. These steps are useful when feelings lead to repeated patterns people want to change.
Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. He will discuss options at the start and adjust methods based on a client's goals, needs, and responses to treatment. The plan can be reviewed and changed as work progresses.
Confirm the session formats before you book, since the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. Many people find that remote sessions help them keep therapy consistent alongside work and family commitments.
