Anthony Mastroianni, LCSW

Anthony Mastroianni is a Clinical Social Worker with more than 25 years of post-master's experience, licensed in Pennsylvania. He holds the LCSW credential - Licensed Clinical Social Worker - which reflects advanced training and practice in clinical social work and psychotherapy. His early training took place at a university-affiliated psychiatric research institute where he concentrated on treatments for substance dependence and mood disorders, shaping a foundation in evidence-informed interventions.

Over the course of his career he developed a specialty in family therapy, working with highly conflicted couples and with individuals who have used aggression or violence in relationships. He is experienced in both individual and group psychotherapy modalities, including psychodynamic, cognitive-based, dialectical, and relaxation-meditative techniques that support increased mindfulness. These varied approaches inform his capacity to work with a wide range of presenting problems.

He has lived and practiced in rural, urban, and island communities and has worked with people from diverse cultural backgrounds, including active duty military personnel and veterans. His practice focuses on mood and anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress, post-acute recovery from substance dependence, histories of family disruption and codependency, and highly conflicted relationships with and without intimate partner violence.

Anthony’s approach is person-centered and non-judgmental. He emphasizes collaboration, individual freedom of choice, and personal accountability, partnering with people to clarify goals, evaluate options, and build the skills needed to manage life’s challenges. He frames difficulties as part of the life experience that, when addressed, can lead to greater fulfillment and resilience.
