About Anthony
Anthony Garza is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people untangle painful patterns and make clearer choices. He centers sessions on building awareness so clients can see what needs attention and take practical steps forward. His approach is calm and steady, and he offers an objective voice when decisions feel overwhelming.
He believes therapy should fit the person, not the other way around. That means listening first, then shaping a plan that reflects each person's goals and life. Sessions often focus on spotting repeated patterns, learning new ways to respond, and trying simple skills between meetings to test what works.
Anthony draws on several therapy styles to match a client's needs. He uses Client-Centered methods to create a respectful, accepting space. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people examine unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Emotionally-Focused Therapy is used when stronger connection and emotional understanding are the goal.
With 13 years of experience, Anthony has worked with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, addiction, codependency, trauma, and mood challenges like depression and bipolar disorder. He also addresses relationship strains, parenting concerns, career stress, and issues around self-esteem and identity.
Clients can expect straightforward conversation, gentle challenges when needed, and homework that is realistic for daily life. Anthony aims to help people notice the patterns that hold them back and practice different ways of living that feel more authentic and manageable.
How Anthony’s approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on offering a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the therapist listens and follows the client’s lead to help them notice what matters and make choices. This approach helps when someone needs acceptance and clarity about their values and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors with practical exercises between sessions; it is useful for anxiety, mood struggles, and daily coping skills. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding emotions and improving emotional connection and communication, which can be helpful when interpersonal hurts or intimacy issues are a concern.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Anthony will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. He combines listening, gentle feedback, and concrete steps so clients can try small changes and see what helps. That collaborative process makes it easier to adjust the plan as progress happens.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins from different locations. It can also offer shorter phone or video check-ins when a quick update is needed, or longer sessions for deeper work, depending on what the therapist provides.
