About Anthony

Anthony Kleinhans is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) practicing in Arizona with 20 years of experience. He focuses on common struggles such as depression, anxiety, stress, addictions, grief, and relationship concerns. Anthony also addresses parenting, intimacy-related issues, career stress, and helping people cope with life changes.

He offers a direct, conversational style in sessions. He listens for what matters most and then works with clients to set practical steps forward. Sessions include exploring patterns in relationships, identifying unhelpful thoughts, and practicing new ways to respond to stress.

Anthony integrates client-centered methods with cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness exercises. He draws on narrative and psychodynamic ideas when useful to help people make sense of past events and current patterns. This mix aims to address both immediate problems and underlying themes that keep returning.

He also brings attention to spiritual concerns when clients want that included, and he is used to helping people work through issues like forgiveness, guilt, and life purpose. He has experience supporting older adults and men facing midlife and caregiving stresses.

People who contact him typically want straightforward guidance, tools to manage symptoms, and clearer communication in their relationships. To begin, readers are asked to confirm current session options before booking.

How Anthony blends therapeutic approaches for online work

Anthony frequently draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which means sessions begin with the client’s concerns and priorities. That approach focuses on listening, clarifying what matters, and working from the client’s goals rather than imposing a preset plan. It is useful for relationship stress, caregiving strain, and life transitions.

He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. CBT tools can help with anxiety, depression, addiction-related behaviors, and anger by teaching concrete skills for managing symptoms and testing new behaviors.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Anthony will partner with the client to decide which methods to use based on their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative step may include trying an approach for a few sessions and adjusting as needed.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, for example by avoiding travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a work break, or enabling a session when camera use is difficult. Many licensed professionals adapt tools like mindfulness exercises and CBT worksheets for remote use to keep progress practical and focused.
