About Anthony
Anthony Russo is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania with ten years of clinical experience. He works with adults who deal with depression, anxiety, addictions, anger, stress, and related life challenges. His approach centers on practical steps people can use day to day to change what isn’t working.
Anthony begins by looking for exceptions in a person’s life - moments when problems were less intense or managed differently. He uses those moments as starting points to build on what already works. Sessions focus on simple, goal-directed skills rather than long theoretical talks.
He blends techniques from cognitive behavioral approaches, acceptance and commitment ideas, dialectical behavior strategies, and mindfulness. That mix is used to help people manage strong reactions, reduce impulsive choices, and build routines that lower stress and cravings. Conversations often include concrete exercises to try between sessions.
Anthony also addresses career stress, parenting strain, grief, caregiver issues, and the effects of trauma. He offers coaching-style input when clients want more direct guidance toward specific goals, while keeping the work focused on manageable steps.
He is straightforward about effort and time. Change is described as gradual and tied to consistent practice. New clients are asked to approach sessions with openness and a willingness to try different tactics. The emphasis is on refocusing energy toward what produces real results rather than repeating patterns that drain resources.
How Anthony uses CBT, ACT and mindfulness online
Anthony often draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking and change behaviors that feed anger, anxiety, or addictive urges. CBT gives clear exercises for testing thoughts and changing routines that keep problems active.He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take manageable steps toward them even when strong emotions are present. ACT supports choosing actions that matter despite difficult feelings. Mindfulness practices are offered as short skills to reduce reactivity and improve awareness of urges and mood swings.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. He collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. That may mean trying a few techniques and adjusting what is used based on what helps most.
Session formats are not specified in the supplied information, so confirm the current online options before booking. Many people find remote sessions help fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins during a workday, and make it easier to practice skills at home. The focus is on making therapy practical and doable within everyday routines rather than promising a specific format.
