Written on Mar 02, 2024 after therapy with Anthony for 2 weeks on issues concerning relationship

Anythony is very consistent with checking in on us in between our therapy session it’s still very soon but we like him a lot

Written on Jan 05, 2024 after therapy with Anthony for 1 year and 4 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, grief, and coping with life changes

Anthony is a Very down to earth therapist who is extremely easy to talk with. My week is noticeably reset in a positive light after each session.

Anthony helped me through a very trying time in my life. He offered concrete suggestions and techniques to deal with difficult situations in my day to day, and helped me so through some ongoing mental blocks and other challenges. He was key in helping me work through situations of social isolation.

He was gentle and encouraging with me, but also firm and unflinching about my weaknesses in a way that was useful and helpful, without being judgmental or overbearing.

Anthony has a very kind voice and affect, which puts you immediately at ease, and invites you to unburden yourself when you have to. I felt very comfortable in our sessions, and looked forward to them through many hard months.

I've come out on the other side of these sessions more confident and much more at ease in my own skin. My level of social comfort has improved drastically, and isolation has become vastly less of an issue. Anthony was very key in that transformation. I highly recommend Anthony to anyone struggling with a variety of mental challenges, particularly social isolation. I particularly recommend him as a therapist for men.

Anthony has been able to provide me a refreshing new perspective on my issues and help me to work through them in a healthy way.

My son really likes working with him. He has even stated that he’s been able to solve problems in his life that he hasn’t even verbalized with Anthony just from the positive effects of the work they do together.

Anthony is very understanding and offers several thoughtful insights. He is always supportive and listens.

We have made progress where others have not. Insightful and honest and pleasant

Written on Jan 04, 2023 after therapy with Anthony for 1 month

Anthony Russo helped me to work through the deeper hurts and hang-ups in my life. Until I began working with Anthony these unhealthy ideologues and habits often held me back. Anthony helped me to identify these and walked with me through the process of change. He is compassionate and a good listener. Two of my favorite things about Anthony are the practical action steps he challanged me to work on in between therapy sessions, and the recaps he provided after each one. This experience of working with Anthony has taught me a lot about myself & life. In working with Anthony, I developed more compassion for myself and others. I am also more hopeful in life. I strongly recommend Anthony Russo as your top pick for Therapists!

Tony is kind and understanding. He takes the time to listen and is concerned with my concerns. He is quick to listen and really helps me to see all perspectives. My feelings feel validated even when I know they are sometimes ridiculous.

He listens very well and give good feedback

Written on Nov 10, 2022 after therapy with Anthony for 5 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, family conflicts, sleeping disorders, anger management, and adhd

Anthony is incredible. He always comes into our sessions with a great attitude, ready to listen to my concerns and thoughts. He offers up wise advice when needed, he listens well, and most importantly, he is truly passionate about improving people’s lives. He always keeps it professional, but has a way of making me feel like I’m talking to an old friend. Would recommend to anyone.

Written on Nov 08, 2022 after therapy with Anthony for 3 weeks on issues concerning stress, anxiety, lgbt, relationship issues, family conflicts, intimacy-related issues, eating disorders, parenting issues, anger management, coaching, and compassion fatigue

I worked with Anthony for about a month primarily on growing my relationship with my wife in the midst of raising our babies. He helped me put together some pieces of the puzzle of myself. He prompted me both to create space, small as it may be, for relationship to grow and to work on putting myself more fully in other people's shoes. My time with Anthony was well spent and I grew as a person through our discussions.

Written on Oct 06, 2022 after therapy with Anthony for 4 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, self esteem, and career difficulties

I was a little nervous whether I was going to enjoy working with my first therapist or if I would have to go through two or three before I found the right person. Anthony was a pleasure to work with from the start. He gave me great advice over the 6 months we worked together. He challenged me when need be, made me question my beliefs, and coached me through a pretty difficult time.

Written on Aug 18, 2022 after therapy with Anthony for 3 months on issues concerning coping with life changes, and coaching

This guy is a FANTASTIC therapist. He functions in my life like a life coach and helps me (as a neurodivergent person) talk through my stuff. He also calls me out when I'm sidestepping. Really good experience.

Anthony is kind and supportive with a very insightful honesty and candor. I’ve made great progress getting a grip on my life and appreciating my successes and blessings after starting my sessions.

he is great

Written on Jun 13, 2022 after therapy with Anthony for 3 weeks on issues concerning relationship

I didn’t have many talks with Anthony. But I could tell he was down to earth and real. It may be his job, but I could tell he cared about me, and genuinely wanted me to overcome what I was going through. He is a real nice man, easy to talk to, and genuine when he speaks. I will recommend Anthony to anyone who needs a listening ear, or help overcoming a problem in your life.
