About Anthony

Anthony Washington is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Alaska. He helps people coping with depression, anxiety, stress, addiction, grief, trauma and related concerns. His manner is straightforward and focused on practical change.

He trained at the University of South Alabama and earned a masters degree in Community Counseling in 1999. Anthony brings three decades of experience to sessions and has worked with adults and couples as well as individuals facing relationship strain and communication problems.

In sessions he uses a strengths-based, flexible approach. He draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and build new habits. He also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas to help people notice and shift the emotional patterns that shape relationships.

Mindfulness techniques and Motivational Interviewing are part of his toolkit when people need help managing urges, staying motivated, or calming intense emotions. He prioritizes clear goals and small, doable steps so progress is visible between visits.

People who come for help with anger, sleep problems, bipolar concerns, ADHD, caregiver stress, or addiction will find practical strategies alongside conversations about meaning and repair. He aims to make sessions useful and grounded in everyday life.

For anyone considering therapy, Anthony asks for an honest snapshot of current struggles and what a better life would look like. That helps shape a plan that fits each persons situation and priorities.

This summary is based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp.

Therapeutic methods and online care

Anthony commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy in his work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioral experiments to reduce symptoms like depression and anxiety. Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on emotions in relationships, helping people notice patterns, express needs more clearly, and repair connection when conflict is present.

He also draws on Client-Centered Therapy ideas, which emphasize listening, empathy, and supporting each persons own goals. Finding the best fit is part of the work together; the therapist and client will discuss what feels most useful and adjust methods based on needs, goals, and preferences.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available session formats before booking since options are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work and family life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people continue care when they move or have limited local options. The therapist will work with each person to plan how sessions will be structured to match practical needs and therapeutic goals.
