About Anthony
Anthony "T.J" Cedeno is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Massachusetts with seven years of professional experience. He works with adults who are managing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, ADHD, and major life changes. He also lists codependency among his focus areas and has long experience supporting people who feel lost in relationships or who put others first at their own expense.
He has spent about a decade working alongside people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. That background shaped his way of working: clear communication, practical problem solving, and steady pacing. Sessions tend to focus on real day-to-day skills rather than abstract talk alone.
T.J. helps people notice patterns that get in the way, like people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or losing focus because of anxiety. He uses evidence-based techniques to address symptoms such as panic, obsessions, compulsions, and social anxiety. He also helps with challenges tied to chronic pain, illness, or disability.
In a meeting with him, clients can expect straightforward conversation about goals and small steps toward them. He emphasizes the client as the expert in their life and looks to build on existing strengths. The tone is practical and focused on what someone can try between sessions.
Sessions are conducted in English and are based in Massachusetts. Cost varies by location and sessions are delivered through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session via the online therapy options button.
How sessions work
Approaches used and how online sessions work
Anthony "T.J" Cedeno uses evidence-based techniques that focus on practical skills and symptom relief. One common approach emphasizes behavioral strategies - identifying small, repeatable actions to reduce anxiety, improve concentration, and manage panic symptoms. This method helps people try concrete changes and track what works. Another approach centers on cognitive methods - noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-world experiments to reduce worry and obsessive thinking. That approach is often useful for social anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and low self-esteem.Finding the right combination of methods is part of the work. T.J. collaborates with each person to pick approaches that match their goals, preferences, and daily routines. He starts by clarifying immediate concerns and then adjusts techniques as progress is made.
The biography does not list which online session formats are used, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, shorten commute time, or allow brief check-ins between in-person visits. It also makes it simpler to continue sessions during life changes or when managing chronic health issues. Licensed professionals can adapt session pacing and exercises to suit quieter moments, lower bandwidth, or shorter windows such as a lunch break.
