About Anthony Mastroianni

Anthony Mastroianni is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Pennsylvania with more than 25 years of post-master's clinical experience. His training began at a university-affiliated psychiatric research institute where he focused on treatments for substance dependence and mood disorders, and he later developed expertise in family therapy interventions working with highly conflicted couples and people who use aggression or violence in relationships.

He is skilled in both individual and group psychotherapy and draws from psychodynamic, cognitive-based, dialectical, and relaxation-meditative methods to help clients increase mindfulness and coping capacity. Anthony has lived and worked in rural, urban, and island communities and brings experience with people from diverse cultural backgrounds. He has also worked with active duty personnel and military veterans.

Anthony's current practice emphasizes care for mood and anxiety difficulties, post-traumatic stress, post-acute recovery from substance dependence, histories of family disruption and codependency, and highly conflicted relationships with or without intimate partner violence. He practices in a person-centered, non-judgmental manner, holding a strong belief in each person's capacity to find solutions and exercise choice.

His style is collaborative and accountability-focused. He works with individuals to define goals, weigh choices that support those goals, and build the practical knowledge and skills needed to manage life challenges and move toward a more fulfilling daily experience.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Anthony uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, non-judgmental space that emphasizes the individual's own goals and choices; this approach is helpful for people navigating life transitions, relationship concerns, and issues of self-esteem. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and is effective for mood disorders, anxiety, and many stress-related problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, blends skills training and emotion regulation techniques to support people who struggle with intense emotions, impulsivity, and relationship conflicts.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Anthony collaborates with each person to assess needs, priorities, and preferences, and together they determine which methods or combination of methods will best support progress toward the client's goals.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit care into varied schedules and geographic locations. These options can increase access to consistent support while allowing the therapist and client to focus on meaningful change and skill building in ways that adapt to the client's life.
