About Anthony

Anthony Mikulskis LCSW helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or the aftermath of trauma. He works with clients who are facing self-esteem struggles, ADHD challenges, or major life transitions. Anthony practices in Kentucky and uses a compassionate, straightforward style to make therapy approachable.

He focuses on building a supportive space where people can talk through what matters most to them. Sessions center on practical steps for coping with day-to-day stress and on learning ways to notice and change unhelpful patterns. The work often includes pacing goals so progress feels manageable.

Anthony uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide the work. That means he draws on methods with research support and adapts them to each person’s needs. He helps clients strengthen resilience, manage symptoms, and develop clearer ways to communicate and set boundaries.

His practice is informed by experience addressing issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, aging and geriatric issues, chronic illness and pain, codependency, and relationship communication problems. Anthony also brings attention to the needs of Veterans, first responders, young adults, and men when relevant to the client’s goals.

People can expect straightforward conversation, goal-oriented planning, and regular check-ins on progress. For those new to therapy, he walks through next steps and what to expect in early sessions. Anthony aims to make the process understandable and useful from the first visit.

How evidence-based techniques guide online therapy

Anthony draws from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and coping strategies. One common approach he uses emphasizes skill-building for managing anxiety and depression, teaching breathing, pacing, and behavioral steps to reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning. Another approach concentrates on processing trauma and related symptoms by helping people name reactions, build safety around triggers, and develop stepwise plans for gradual recovery.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Anthony works with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals, values, and pace. He checks in regularly and adjusts the plan so therapy stays relevant and useful as needs change.

If you plan to use online therapy, confirm the specific session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Many people find that online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Online work can support continuity during life transitions and lets discussions focus on concrete coping strategies and communication skills that translate into daily routines.
