About Lawrence

Lawrence "Anton" Feriozzi is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with seven years of clinical experience. He works with adults on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, relationship struggles, grief, and issues around identity and intimacy. Sessions address patterns that leave people feeling emptied or overly responsible for others.

Anton focuses on helping people identify what keeps painful feelings going. He treats symptoms and looks for the situations and patterns that cause them. In sessions he listens carefully, asks direct questions, and helps clients name the beliefs and behaviors that get in the way of change.

His practical approach mixes long-term and short-term methods. He uses attachment-informed ideas to look at relationship patterns. He also uses cognitive-behavioral techniques to change thinking and behavior that worsen anxiety and depression.

He has worked with a range of adults, including men, people who are gay or lesbian, transgender clients, and new mothers. He has experience with trauma, mood and personality concerns, substance use, co-occurring disorders, and issues common to caregiving and aging.

Anton asks clients to bring real-life problems into the room so they can try out new ways of coping. He helps set clear goals, track progress, and adjust methods as needed. To start, he recommends using the service matching process and scheduling a first session so practical steps can begin.

How sessions work

How his approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape expectations and behavior. It helps people who keep putting others first or who fear abandonment identify the patterns that repeat in adult relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing small, concrete changes that reduce anxiety and depression. EMDR is a trauma-focused tool that works with distressing memories and reactions to reduce their intensity and interference in daily life.

Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. He will work together with the client to decide which methods suit their goals, whether the priority is symptom relief, changing relationship patterns, or addressing past trauma. That choice can shift as progress is made and new needs appear.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in during a lunch break, or avoiding travel time to and from an appointment. It also lets people try approaches like CBT exercises or EMDR-informed processing without rearranging as much of their day. Licensed professionals can adapt these methods for remote sessions while tracking progress and adjusting treatment over time.
