About Anthony
Anthony Hodges is a licensed marriage and family therapist practicing in California. He helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes.
Background and approach
He speaks English and offers sessions that fit different schedules and needs. Anthony draws on seven years of clinical experience to shape care around each person's situation.
He values clear, respectful conversation and adapts the pace and focus to what feels most useful. Sessions aim to build practical skills for managing emotions and everyday challenges.
He focuses on creating a calm and direct space where people can talk through what is most pressing. Anthony listens for patterns in thinking and behavior that fuel stress and low mood, then works with clients to try different strategies.
Progress is tracked in small, concrete steps so change feels doable. Anthony tailors treatment plans rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach.
He balances short-term problem solving with skills that support longer-term resilience. People who choose him can expect straightforward feedback and collaborative goal setting.
Getting started involves a brief matching process and scheduling a first session. Anthony encourages the small, early steps that make therapy feel less daunting and more manageable.
Practical approaches for online care
Anthony uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and steady progress. One approach emphasizes identifying unhelpful thinking and trying simple shifts in how a person thinks about stress and worry; this helps reduce anxious reactions and improves daily functioning. Another approach centers on learning emotion regulation and anger-management skills through short, practiceable exercises that can be used in moments of strong feeling.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which techniques match their current goals, needs, and comfort level. Together they set small goals, review what helps, and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate different routines. Video is useful for full-session conversations, phone works when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit sessions into work, school, or family schedules while keeping therapy consistent.
