Anthony Trader

I completed my Master’s Degree in Social Work from Salisbury University in Salisbury, Maryland. I'm a member of the American Association of Christian Counselors, The Sarasota Academy of Christian Counseling and has received board certification in Temperament Therapy with the National Christian Counselors Association. Also I'm a Board Certified Clinical Sexual Addiction Therapist with the Board of Christian Professional and Pastoral Counselors. I try to be a positive and highly motivated Christian with a passion for sharing the person of Jesus Christ with others. I've worked at Eastern Correctional Institute & Eastern Shore Psychological Services running day groups and working in the Intensive Outpatient Unit. As well as working with at risk middle and high school students for many years doing summer camps in the local area. I have over 15 years’ experience working for my family owned business in Pocomoke, MD. I've served on the board at WOLC, a local Christian radio station. Presently, I'm the Board Chairman of Agape Counseling Associates in Rochester NY as well as the co-owner of The Underground Ministry, which works internationally with men and their spouses to help heal from the pain and effects of sexual addiction. Lastly, I serve as Director of Life Counseling Center, Inc. at our Salisbury, MD & Milton, DE offices.
​
​I also served in the Unites States Air Force (USAF) for over seven (7) years, having served a tour in Saudi Arabia. While in the Armed Forces I also received a degree in Business Management. Since I've become a Christian, I try to share the life and power of Jesus Christ with others. In February 2000 I gave my life to Jesus and have been seeking and searching truth every day since.
My passion in counseling ranges in several different areas from marriage counseling, to teens and addictions. On a weekly basis I have the privilege, both individually as well as in a group setting, of counseling men and women who struggle with the bondage of sexual addiction. I'm Life Counseling Center's "go to guy" with counseling teens who face various pressures and struggles in their lives. I use unique views and unconventional ways to connect with teens to bring both change and growth within a Clinical/Christian setting. Finally, by the grace of God, I use unique talents in helping both marital couples as well as individuals find lasting help and healing for their lives. As a certified Clinical Temperament Therapist, I use this great resource tool to help each individual and couple I counsel both understand and become inspired in their rich identity in Christ.
Lastly I reside in Pocomoke City, MD with my wife Ashley and my two children, Londyn and Lincoln.
