About Lawrence

Lawrence "Anton" Feriozzi is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with seven years of clinical experience. He works with adults on problems such as stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, depression, grief, anger, relationship concerns, parenting strain, and identity issues.

Anton learned firsthand how a strong therapeutic relationship can change a life, and that shapes how he practices. He favors a psychodynamic orientation while drawing on cognitive-behavioral techniques and a person-centered stance. Sessions focus on identifying patterns that keep problems recurring and on practical steps to reduce symptoms.

He pays attention to attachment dynamics and early relationship wounds that often underlie anger, resentment, and repeated conflict. Work in sessions can include tracing how past hurts show up now, testing new ways of responding, and practicing concrete skills for managing strong feelings.

Anton also has experience addressing trauma and co-occurring substance concerns. He uses eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) as one of several approaches when processing traumatic memories, alongside other methods to help stabilize mood and reduce distress.

People meet him for short-term problem solving or longer-term reflective work. He aims to help clients get clearer about goals, regain control over symptoms, and rebuild more satisfying everyday relationships. Sessions are in English and he accepts international clients; confirm session formats when booking.

How sessions work

How his approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work explores how early relationships shape current reactions. It looks at patterns of closeness, trust, and anger and helps people learn different ways of relating that reduce recurring conflict. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It offers concrete tools for managing anger, reducing avoidance, and changing unhelpful thinking. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) targets disturbing traumatic memories and can reduce their emotional intensity through paced processing. Finding the best approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will discuss options and decide together which methods suit a person's goals, symptoms, and comfort. That collaboration includes adjusting methods over time as needs change. Confirm the available session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so sessions happen between work or family responsibilities. They also let a person choose quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera when that helps them focus. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches to work well in remote sessions, balancing practical skills practice with deeper processing.
