About Lawrence

Lawrence "Anton" Feriozzi is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with seven years of clinical experience. He works with adults on problems such as stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, grief, relationship concerns, parenting stress, and anger. He also addresses trauma, self-esteem, career challenges, and issues linked to identity and intimacy.

Anton describes his path to counseling as personal. He says finding a therapist himself in midlife changed his view of help and led him to this work. That background shapes how he approaches clients today: practical, relational, and focused on uncovering causes behind persistent pain.

His style blends a psychodynamic outlook with client-centered practices. He uses cognitive-behavioral techniques alongside longer-term exploration of patterns that repeat in relationships. In session he listens carefully, asks curious questions, and names patterns that often go unnoticed.

Anton notes particular experience with trauma, mood problems, substance concerns, and issues many men and LGBTQ clients raise about identity and relationships. He also supports people coping with caregiving stress, attachment wounds, and life changes such as separation or grief.

He emphasizes working together to find what eases symptoms and changes daily life. Practical steps and talking through painful memories are both part of his approach, depending on what a client needs. To begin, the site matching process is used to schedule a first appointment and complete intake steps.

Approaches that translate to online work

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape responses today and helps people notice patterns in close connections. It can be useful for issues like anger tied to feeling abandoned or misunderstood. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what comes up in session so clients feel understood and can make their own choices about change. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) teaches specific skills to recognize unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors, which often helps with anxiety, anger, and mood problems.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide if more skills-based work or deeper relational exploration fits a person's needs, goals, and preferences. That plan can change as work progresses and as priorities shift.

Confirm the session formats offered before booking since the profile does not list them explicitly. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life by avoiding travel, allowing shorter check-ins between commitments, or making sessions possible across different time zones for international clients. These practical benefits often help people maintain regular appointments and carry new strategies into daily routines.
