01About Anthony
Anthony Kleinhans has spent about 20 years helping people work through emotional and relational challenges. He is a Licensed Professional Counselor - LPC and holds the LPCC credential. He practices in Arizona and offers care informed by both clinical methods and personal faith.
Clients meet a therapist who listens closely and focuses on practical steps. Sessions tend to center on problems like anxiety, depression, grief, stress, and addiction. He also addresses relationship struggles, parenting concerns, intimacy issues, anger, low self-esteem, and challenges around life and career changes.
Background and approach
Anthony blends straightforward talk with tools that can be used between sessions. He draws on client-centered work to make people feel heard, cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking, and mindfulness to reduce reactivity. Narrative and psychodynamic ideas are used when helpful to understand long-standing patterns.
His approach includes attention to spirituality when clients want that included. He talks with people about purpose, forgiveness, and shame in ways that fit their beliefs. He also helps people manage practical stressors such as chronic health problems, caregiving strain, and financial pressure.
Sessions are geared toward building skills and increasing resilience. Anthony prefers to work collaboratively, setting goals that match what each person needs. The emphasis is on clear steps, steady progress, and real-world coping strategies.

04Online support
Approaches that fit online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding. Online sessions use this approach to help people feel heard and to set goals that matter to them. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful patterns; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress and adapts well to exercises done between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to try methods that fit their goals and preferences. That might mean starting with CBT tools, adding mindfulness practices, or drawing on narrative ideas to reframe difficult stories.
Online formats offer practical advantages. Video calls let people read facial cues and practice skills in-session, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging supports brief reflections or coaching between meetings. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy week and keep progress moving forward.
