About Anthony

Anthony Cavuoti is a California LMFT with 30 years of clinical experience. He works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief, anger, relationship and intimacy issues, and challenges related to gender and sexuality. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted. He frames work around life transitions and identity questions, including gender dysphoria and LGBT-related concerns.

He tends to focus on practical change rather than labels. He helps people recognize patterns that keep them stuck and develops clearer self-appraisal. That can mean noticing how anger shows up at work or in close relationships, and learning small, repeatable ways to respond differently. Anthony describes this as helping people let go of what no longer serves them and make choices that include more of who they are.

In session he combines listening with structured skill work. Conversations look at thoughts, behaviors, and real-life choices. He supports building cognitive skills and decision-making tools that fit everyday life. This includes short practices to reduce reactivity and clearer communication techniques.

Anthony draws on three decades of experience with trauma, depression, bipolar concerns, ADHD, and compassion fatigue among other issues. He also works with parenting stress, eating concerns, social anxiety, isolation, and life purpose questions. His approach aims to be direct and practical rather than abstract.

To begin, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time and fees vary by location.

How sessions work

Therapeutic methods and online sessions

Anthony emphasizes evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on thinking and behavior. Cognitive approaches look at the thoughts that fuel anger and teach ways to test and shift unhelpful thinking patterns. These techniques help reduce rumination and reactivity in everyday situations.

He also uses behavioral skill-building that focuses on moment-to-moment actions. This includes short, practical tools for calming down, pacing responses, and practicing clearer communication so disagreements stay constructive. Those skills are useful for work stress, relationship friction, and intense emotions after loss or trauma.

Finding the right method is part of the process. He works collaboratively to identify which approaches match a person’s goals and preferences, and adjusts techniques as progress and needs change. Clients and the therapist decide together what to try and how to measure small gains.
