About Richard

Richard Anemone is a New York licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 17 years of clinical experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, and difficulties with concentration and focus often associated with ADHD.

Background and approach

He works with individuals who are navigating panic disorder and panic attacks as part of those concerns, offering steady support while recognizing each person's strengths and knowledge about their own life.

His practice emphasizes collaboration and respect for the client's perspective, encouraging clients to build on existing resources while learning new skills to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Richard frames the therapeutic relationship as a partnership in which taking the first step toward greater wellbeing is acknowledged as an act of courage and progress.

He offers practical guidance and emotional support tailored to a client's priorities and pace, and he aims to help clients find clearer focus, calmer responses to stress, and healthier coping patterns.

Evidence-Based Techniques and Remote Care

Richard uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skill-building and symptom reduction. One common approach he employs involves teaching clients skills to manage anxiety and panic symptoms through gradual exposure and breathing or grounding strategies that reduce immediate distress and increase daily functioning. Another frequently used method centers on behavioral strategies and habit changes to address addictions and anger through replacement skills, routine adjustments, and targeted coping plans that support long-term change.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Richard treats it as a collaborative process. He works with clients to identify goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what helps an individual feel more in control, attentive, and resilient. The fit between method and person is continually revisited to ensure progress aligns with preferences and needs.

Online therapy with him is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varied schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier for people to access ongoing support, practice skills between sessions, and maintain continuity of care even when life is busy or travel makes in-person visits difficult.
