About Anthony
Anthony Watt is a licensed professional clinical counselor practicing in Ohio. He has eight years of experience helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and struggles with addictions. He also offers support around parenting, intimacy-related concerns, and coping with life changes.
Anthony speaks English and works with clients remotely, including international clients. Anthony centers sessions on the client’s own strengths. He treats each person as the expert on their life and helps them identify practical steps forward.
Background and approach
Conversations focus on what is most pressing now, and on small, doable skills to reduce distress and build confidence. He uses several evidence-informed methods to guide work in therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and shift behaviors.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers skills for managing emotions and reducing impulsive reactions. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy are used to boost motivation and set clear, attainable goals. Sessions often feel direct and action-oriented.
Anthony aims to make change feel manageable rather than overwhelming. He also supports people dealing with trauma, grief, anger, and issues like compassion fatigue and burnout. Anthony encourages anyone who feels stuck to reach out.
He knows starting therapy takes courage and focuses on helping people find strengths they can use right away. To begin, clients choose a plan, complete a short questionnaire, and schedule a first session according to availability.
How therapy methods translate to online care
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors that keep problems going. Online CBT sessions often include simple exercises, thought records, and behavior plans to try between meetings. DBT, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy, teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These skills can be practiced in real time and reviewed during video or chat sessions to build consistent habits.Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then adjust methods as work progresses. That collaborative process helps tailor skills and goals to the client’s day-to-day life.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to use skills where they matter most. Remote therapy can let people practice tools between meetings and reach a licensed professional from different locations, including internationally.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
Motivational Interviewing
A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
