Anthony Skerritt earned a master's degree in Mental Health Counseling from Mercy College and practices as a licensed mental health counselor in New York, holding the credential NY LMHC 014060. He has four years of experience providing therapy to young adults and adults facing a range of mental health challenges.
His therapeutic approach combines several evidence-based methods that he finds effective in helping people reach their goals. He frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to offer practical, solution-focused tools that help clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Motivational Interviewing is another core element of his work, providing a collaborative, client-centered way to explore ambivalence and build motivation for change.
Anthony also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to highlight clients' strengths and resources, encouraging the development of workable strategies tailored to each person's situation. He emphasizes a first-person approach that creates a non-judgmental space for clients to express their experiences, prioritizing empathy and attentive listening as the foundation of the therapeutic relationship.
He is particularly passionate about working with young adults and adults coping with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, low self-esteem, and life transitions, as well as those dealing with personality-related concerns. Anthony adapts his methods to fit each client's needs and is committed to providing a supportive, empowering environment for personal growth and healing.
Many people wonder whether remote therapy can truly help. For a range of common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and major life transitions - online therapy has been found to be comparable to traditional in-person sessions for most individuals.
One major benefit is flexibility. Clients can connect in the format that best fits their routine and comfort level - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to maintain regular sessions amid busy schedules.
All participating professionals are licensed therapists, and clients have the option to switch therapists at any time if they seek a different fit. For many people, remote therapy provides an accessible, adaptable way to pursue support and growth without changing the core quality of care.
