Anthony Washington, LPC - Therapist in Alaska

About Anthony

Anthony Washington is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Alaska who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship strain, family challenges, and mood concerns. He works with clients coping with trauma, grief, sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem, bipolar symptoms, ADHD, and life transitions. He also addresses caregiver stress, blended family tensions, communication breakdowns, and substance-related issues.

His style is practical and person-focused. He listens first, then builds goals with each person or couple.

Background and approach

Sessions tend to focus on what is happening now and what can be changed. He draws on tools that match the problem at hand rather than using a single method for everyone. Anthony trained at the University of South Alabama where he completed a master’s degree in community counseling in 1999.

He has three decades of experience in clinical settings and community work across a range of concerns. That background guides his straightforward way of working with families and relationships. He uses a mix of evidence-informed techniques, including cognitive behavioral work and mindfulness practices.

He also brings in emotionally focused methods and motivational strategies when helpful. The aim is to reduce distress, improve communication, and build practical coping skills. Sessions are offered in English and delivered through online formats such as video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging.

Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling based on therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online care for families

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and meeting people where they are. It helps clients feel heard and supported while they identify their own goals and steps forward. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns and reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person or couple to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. That may mean using more than one approach over time so the plan fits the issues a family brings.

Online therapy here uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care more flexible. These formats let people connect from home, fit sessions around busy schedules, and check in between meetings when helpful. Licensed professionals can use these options to combine skills-based work, emotion-focused conversations, and mindfulness exercises in ways that suit each family’s routine and goals.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)

Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.
