Tony is dedicated to helping adults, teens, and couples move past distress and achieve lasting, self-led change. He believes people already hold the answers and the capacity for healing. His role as a therapist is to help folks uncover the innate strengths and resources that may be currently difficult to access because of overwhelming emotions or life's struggles.
Tony’s approach is integrative and grounded, blending modalities that focus on both deep emotional insight and practical coping skills, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) that provides empowering understanding of thought and behavior patterns, along with Internal Family Systems (IFS) to foster emotional awareness and profound self-discovery by exploring the "parts" of client’s inner world.
This includes his work with couples integrating Gottman based approach to help partners define and build their shared vision for a healthy, vibrant relationship and learn to communicate safely from a place of vulnerability, strengthen their ability to repair conflict, and foster deeper, more sustainable connection.
