Dr. Anthony DePasquale

I'm a licensed psychologist and founder of Clarity Psychological Services LLC. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, OCD, depression, stress, life transitions, and other emotional challenges. Having personally experienced anxiety and OCD, I understand how isolating and frustrating these struggles can feel. That perspective, combined with my professional experience, allows me to help you address the patterns that keep you feeling stuck, build practical skills to overcome them, and help you pursue a meaningful life according to your own values.

The name Clarity reflects one of my core beliefs about therapy: meaningful change begins with greater clarity. I don't believe my role is to tell you how to live your life. Instead, I view therapy as a collaborative process where we work together to better understand your thoughts, emotions, and experiences so you can develop your own insight into what truly matters to you.

While I am eclectic in my practice and undergoing constant new training (a lifelong learner), I primarily use both Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). Rather than simply giving advice, I help you understand the thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that maintain distress so you can develop lasting skills.

Our first session is an opportunity for us to get to know one another and begin building a shared understanding of what brings you to therapy. I'll ask about your current concerns, relevant history, strengths and what you hope to gain from treatment. Together, we'll begin identifying priorities and discuss a treatment plan tailored to your needs. My goal will be to have you leave with a clearer picture of how we'll work together and what to expect moving forward.
