Getting to know Dr. Anthony Morice
Dr. Anthony R. Morice is a licensed clinical psychologist (License #PSY34574) and the founder of The Freedom Clinic, based in San Francisco, California. With over a decade of clinical experience specializing in substance abuse, addiction treatment, trauma, anxiety, and depression, Dr. Morice provides a grounded, collaborative space for individuals navigating complex emotional and behavioral challenges.
The clinical philosophy at The Freedom Clinic centers on the premise that willpower alone is rarely enough to break free from deeply ingrained repetitive cycles. By integrating traditional psychoanalytic theory with evidence-based strategies for symptom management, Dr. Morice helps clients move beyond surface-level behavioral changes to explore the unconscious motivations, early attachment histories, and structural patterns underlying their struggles. Whether addressing chemical dependency, relational conflict, or chronic anxiety, the work focuses on fostering genuine emotional autonomy and lasting psychological integration.
Dr. Morice serves clients via telehealth throughout California as well as in-person in San Francisco. Sessions are tailored to your individual worldview, background, and specific clinical needs, offering an attuned, non-judgmental environment where you can safely unpack your story and build sustainable change.
What should a new client know about working with you?
When you step into our practice, the most important thing to know is that you can arrive exactly as you are. There is no performance, polish, or preparation required. We start right where you actually are in your life.
Our work together is collaborative and conversational, rooted in a few core principles:
We listen for the whole story: Symptoms and addictive patterns are not failures of character; they are signals pointing toward deeper emotional truths. We work together to understand what those signals are trying to communicate.
We blend relief with deep work: While we equip you with practical, evidence-based tools to help manage immediate distress and navigate daily life, we also dive into the underlying psychoanalytic work necessary to ensure that change lasts long-term.
Your treatment is entirely personalized: There is no one-size-fits-all roadmap here. Your background, culture, and unique lived experience shape how we approach your care, ensuring your treatment plan evolves organically as you do.
Therapy shouldn't feel like an interrogation or a sterile clinical exercise. It should be a real, human relationship dedicated to helping you reclaim your agency, find freedom from what holds you back, and build a life of genuine connection and meaning.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Our work together follows a clear, collaborative roadmap designed to move you from initial relief to deep, lasting transformation. Because no two people arrive with the exact same story, our process is structured to adapt to your specific needs while maintaining a grounded framework:
The Initial Consultation: We begin with a brief, no-commitment conversation (via telehealth or in-person in San Francisco) to discuss what brings you in, understand the challenges you are facing, and ensure that our approach is a strong fit for your goals.
Intake and Assessment: In our first formal sessions, we start exactly where you are—without polish or performance. We map out your history, current symptoms, and relational patterns, listening carefully for the whole story behind what you're experiencing.
Stabilization and Near-Term Tools: When navigating acute distress, addiction cycles, or overwhelming anxiety, immediate grounding is essential. We equip you with practical, evidence-based coping strategies to help stabilize your daily life and manage distress right away.
Deep Psychoanalytic Exploration: Once immediate stability is established, we move beyond surface-level behavioral fixes. We dive into the underlying unconscious motivations, early attachment histories, and repetitive relational patterns that willpower alone cannot resolve.
Ongoing Evolution and Autonomy: Your treatment plan evolves organically as you do. Regular reviews ensure our work remains aligned with your growth, ultimately helping you cultivate genuine emotional autonomy, break free from self-defeating cycles, and build a meaningful, connected life.

Unfortunately this provider is no longer accepting patients through Zocdoc, but hadn’t removed their profile. I booked and showed up to my appointment only to find the provider no longer offered appointments and was not even at that location anymore.

Dr. Anthony is excellent with children. At first, we were skeptical about him because we found him by accident not knowing if we can trust him with our child alone. But after a few therapy sessions, he had won our trust. Our son bonded with Dr. Anthony quickly. That’s a plus for us parents because every time when our son misbehaves, we would say we need to talk to the Dr. Anthony about your behavior and he would stop immediately and behave right again. Our son started with less confidence but after seeing Dr. Anthony, he had developed confidence which is crucial for him in school and throughout his life. Our favorite therapy session was when Dr. Anthony and our son created a short apology song and performed a mini concert for us. The words were hilarious yet the song was heartwarming. It really made us very happy at the end. We didn’t know how helpful therapy is until we saw Dr. Anthony. Dr. Anthony was an excellent fit for our son and made a difference in our family lives.

He had an amazing ability to get us all on the same page and “suss out” what was driving our desire to look to substances to provide relief to our struggles
One of the most impactful things he introduced were the activities that he led that focused on having fun in sobriety. I will always remember the outings in the woods, the crazy games he would organize, etc., etc., that helped all of us develop the spirit of “ sobriety can be a blast!” That’s important in my continued journey.
Anthony was always by my side as a delt with my personal consequences both legal and interpersonal. I showed up. He showed up .

Dr. Morice was kind, patient, and most importantly, non-judgmental. He fostered an environment that allowed me to speak openly about past, present, and future concerns. He’s an empathetic listener and made me feel valued and heard during my sessions.
