About Richard

Richard Anemone is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with 17 years of experience. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, and difficulties with concentration and focus related to ADHD. He also has experience supporting those who face panic disorder and panic attacks.

He approaches sessions as a place to talk through practical problems and build useful skills. He treats the client as the expert on their own story and looks for existing strengths to build on. Conversations are straightforward and focused on what helps in day-to-day life.

In sessions he helps people notice what triggers strong emotions and develop ways to respond differently. That can include learning techniques for calming down, improving focus, and handling cravings or urges. He uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to shape those conversations into clear steps.

Richard aims to keep plans concrete. He helps set small, realistic goals and checks progress each week. If panic attacks or sudden anxiety are part of the problem, he works on specific strategies to manage the immediate symptoms and reduce their frequency.

People who come for anger-related concerns can expect clear guidance on recognizing escalation patterns and practical tools to interrupt them. He also supports people dealing with long-term frustration that affects work, relationships, or daily routines.

How his approaches translate to online sessions

Richard uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills. One approach involves teaching breathing and grounding strategies to reduce immediate anxiety and panic symptoms; these are short exercises you can practice between sessions. Another approach focuses on spotting escalation patterns in anger and building step-by-step responses to lower intensity and prevent outbursts. Both approaches emphasize simple exercises and homework that can be reviewed remotely.

Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, daily routines, and what feels manageable. That means checking what helps, adjusting tools, and setting small, measurable goals together.

If you plan to use online sessions, confirm the specific formats available before booking. Many people find remote sessions let them fit therapy into work breaks, avoid travel time, or use quieter surroundings for focused skill practice. Online meetings also make it easy to review recorded exercises or notes and to practice short coping techniques between appointments.
