More about Anton
- 40 years' experience
- Male
- Psychologist
I am licensed in New York with 40 years of professional experience as a psychologist. The spectrum of my work with clients ranges from helping cope with stress and anxiety to working on relationship issues, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, coping with life changes, and the pursuit of meaning. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment conducive to insight and where thoughts and feelings can be sensitively examined.
I am a multi-modal, integrative therapist experienced in diverse techniques ( depth psychologies, spiritual psychotherapies, behavioral, affective, existential, and cognitive-behavioral modalities). I am also a neuroscientist. I am professionally committed to the therapeutic philosophy that the client's needs and styles dictate the mix of methods, not the other way around.
Taking the first step to seek a more fulfilling life takes courage and is an investment in reimagining oneself for greater joy and cultivating an ever more resilient and meaningful sense of oneself. I am here to support you on that journey.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Dr. Armbruster has been instrumental in getting me back into my creative space and out of my depression over the last several months. I've made concrete moves in the right direction and those moves are discussed and accounted for in our sessions.
Anton is a great listener and a very insightful person. I’ve been speaking to him for 90 minutes yet feel as though he knows me better then some of my close friends of 20 years. Highly recommended!

I find Dr. Armbruster to be a professional, knowledgeable, compassionate, practical, approachable, flexible, and incredibly helpful. I’m extremely happy with the work that we’ve done together. I would recommend Dr. Armbrister without hesitation.
My wife and I have been very happy with Dr. Armbruster. He is knowledgeable, compassionate, and, empathetic. His suggested course of action(s) and guidance are definitely beneficial to my wife and me.
All my interactions so far have been professional and helpful.
He is great he listen to what you have to say and offers positive feedback
It’s been a pleasure working with Dr. Armbruster as I navigate a challenging period in my life. He is unlike the other people in my life and his support has filled a previously unknown absence.
Dr. Armbruster has been an amazing help to me at a very dark time. He got me through that and now we are working through understanding how my history influences the way I respond to the present and how by better understanding that past I can make changes to my thought process to ensure I am not caught in a vicious cycle. He is open, respectful and genuinely cares. I am very grateful for him and am enjoying the therapy process he is employing that has been curated specifically to my needs and what works for me.
I have been in and out of therapy for years, and Dr. Armbruster is by far the best therapist I've had. He truly cares, listens, understands, and offers great advice and support.
He knows his stuff - plain and simple. He provides you the utmost respect and patience, and then unravels wisdom he's learned from his own life as well as his professional training. I'd recommend him again and again. In a world that can sometimes feel chaotic, Dr. Armbruster is a steady hand.
Dr.Armbruster is very knowledgeable and has great experience to help others that are looking for help. He is very professional and I never feel judged or shame any time we have a session. I appreciate everything he has done to help me in my life path.
I was always hesitant (resistant almost) to get a help with my internal battles. As someone who likes to be in control or to never feel weak, seeking help has been a lifelong struggle. Once I finally committed to the platform, I was given a therapist that did not feel helpful. It almost shuttered my experience but I decided to give one more chance & chose Dr. A. From the beginning, I felt very comfortable & immediately understood as we navigate my issues. It's been great thus far. Highly recommend Dr. Armburster.
He has been amazing in working with me so far and I am looking forward to continuing to work with him.
I have been in therapy for 10+ years. Dr. Armbruster has by far been the most knowledgeable therapist I have had. I am working with several different issues and Dr. Armbruster always makes sure we touch on each one. He is very patient, never makes you feel like you have to rush and even went over more than 20 minutes when I really needed it. He is kind and compassionate. I could have my insurance pay for therapy but I would have to change therapist and I am just not willing to do that, Dr. Armbruster is that good. I can't say enough good things about the experience I have had. I strongly recommend him.
So far in my journey I’ve felt supported and guided through my first experience with therapy and it’s been a good experience.
