Great to meet you!

Hello, my name is Anthony Skerritt. I am a graduate of Mercy college with a master in Mental Health Counseling. I am a license therapist. My therapeutic approach is rooted in a combination of evidence-based modalities that I find particularly effective in helping clients achieve their therapeutic goals. I have a strong preference for the following therapeutic techniques: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interveiwing, Solution-focused Therapy and First-person Aprroach

My approach to therapy

I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for practical solutions to address negative thoughts and behaviors, Motivational Interviewing (MI) for collaborative exploration of ambivalence and motivation, and Solution-Focused Therapy to highlight strengths and find unique solutions. My First-Person Approach prioritizes empathy and active listening, fostering a safe and non-judgmental therapeutic space.

What you can expect from me

In my therapeutic approach, I prioritize tailoring each session to meet the unique needs of every client. Our collaborative work emphasizes creating a safe, supportive, and empowering space for personal growth and healing. In essence, clients working with me can expect a therapeutic partnership tailored to their distinct needs, grounded in evidence-based practices, and dedicated to fostering personal growth and healing within a secure and supportive environment.
