Michael Anthony, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
St. Petersburg FL
I like to try to keep things very relaxed and have a very conversational approach. I try to provide a very warm environment, a very welcoming environment, and a judgment-free environment. I'm also very big into feedback, so if there's anything I could be doing to make this experience more comfortable for you, please don't hesitate to tell me.
I remember going through the motions of living life how I thought others wanted me to live. I was always putting others first and myself second, and although I gained joy from some of these experiences, knowing that I was not true to myself and who I wanted to be made me feel lazy and unfulfilled. It wasn’t until I began practicing and learning the martial arts that I felt a calling to use the energy I was working with to incorporate it into my daily interactions and introspection. While I was working on my Masters, the teachings of martial arts and eastern philosophy coincided with my academic lessons in a way that gave me perspective on how I could better myself, my mood, and hopefully the lives of those around me. Since then, I have felt a great improvement on my outlook and my ability to assist others in battling their own struggles and crossroads.
I offer Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy in partnership with Journey Clinical and TARAmind.
