About Anthony
Anthony Clark is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Virginia with 27 years of clinical experience. He works with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, mood dysregulation, ADHD and relationship concerns. He also addresses codependency and parenting strain. He accepts international clients and provides counseling in English.
Anthony has worked in hospitals, residential settings, schools and in clients' homes. That range means he has seen how problems show up in different parts of life. He draws on many approaches instead of using a single method.
In sessions he blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior ideas. That means conversations about current problems are paired with skills practice. He also uses emotionally-focused and existential ideas to look at how feelings and meaning affect day-to-day choices.
Sessions are relaxed and interactive. He talks through what’s going on, helps people spot patterns, and offers exercises to try between meetings. Practical topics often include communication, setting limits, coping with grief, and managing mood swings.
People who struggle with overgiving, trouble saying no, or getting lost in relationships will find concrete strategies here. He will work with each person to set realistic steps and check how those steps fit into normal life. If someone wants to begin, they follow the site's process to match and schedule a first meeting.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. Online sessions using this approach create time to describe daily struggles and feel understood, which helps clarify what to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down problems into patterns of thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills to alter them; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing mood swings. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships through specific skills practice useful for mood dysregulation and high emotional reactivity.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and daily routines, then suggest which methods to try first. Clients and the therapist check how an approach fits and adjust the plan together in regular sessions.
The original profile does not specify session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, like shorter check-ins during a break, doing skills practice between meetings, or avoiding travel time. Licensed professionals can use the online setting to assign exercises, review progress, and practice boundary-setting or communication skills in real situations without promising a particular format.
