About Anthony Garza

“Discovering the truth about ourselves is a lifetime’s work, but it’s worth the effort.” -Mr. Fred Rogers. Awareness is the main goal in all my counseling sessions. If you are not aware of what needs to be worked on, discussed, overcome, or addressed, then you will never be equipped with the proper tools needed to resolve or work through challenges. I will help you peel back the layers of your life and discover who you truly are in order to help you tap into the best version of yourself.

I offer another perspective that is sometimes needed when decisions need to be made or situations arise in life that are difficult to comprehend. Other times you just need someone to listen or affirm what you are believing. In any case, I can be an objective voice of reason.

Counseling is not one-size-fits-all. I have always felt that I possess the innate ability to not just connect with people but to always provide them with a tailored counseling experience.
