Anthia Casanova, LMHC

Anthia Casanova is a licensed mental health counselor with 16 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and addictions. She also supports those facing issues around LGBT identity, self-esteem, motivation, and relationship concerns.

She approaches work as a collaboration. Anthia starts by listening closely to each person’s story and strengths. She believes clients are the experts on their lives and builds on what already works for them.

Her sessions often use practical, skills-based tools to address difficult moments. Techniques drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy help people notice unhelpful thoughts and learn steadying skills for intense feelings. Motivational interviewing supports people who want to make changes but feel stuck.

Anthia uses a client-centered stance that focuses on respect and clear goals. That means she tailors plans to each person’s needs and pace, with attention to values and what matters most in daily life. This can include working on communication, boundary-setting, impulse control, or managing mood swings.

She practices in Florida as an FL LMHC - Licensed Mental Health Counselor. Sessions are carried out in English, and she accepts clients from outside the U.S. when appropriate. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Anthia combines client-centered work with focused skills training to help people tackle everyday problems. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening, empathy, and following the client’s lead so goals arise from what matters most to the individual. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Anthia collaborates with each person to choose which methods fit their needs and goals. She checks in about what is working and adjusts tools and pacing as therapy progresses.

The practical benefits of online work can include easier scheduling and the ability to fit sessions into a busy day. If you are considering therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since formats were not listed in the original biography. Online sessions can make it simpler to attend short check-ins, continue momentum between in-person visits, or access care when travel is difficult. Licensed professionals can help tailor session length and focus so therapy fits everyday life without demanding major changes to routines.
