About Anthony
Anthony Washington is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Alaska with 30 years of clinical experience. He helps adults manage stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship and family concerns, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem issues, bipolar symptoms, ADHD, and coping with life changes.
He uses a straightforward, practical style in sessions. Conversations focus on current problems and what can change in daily life. He draws on client-centered work to listen and prioritize what matters to the individual. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy and Imago ideas appear when the work leans toward relationships. Mindfulness practices are included to help with grounding and stress management. Motivational Interviewing is used when people are weighing change, especially around addiction or caregiving stress.
Anthony trained in community counseling and has applied his skills across many settings since finishing his master’s degree in 1999. He often works with people facing family of origin issues, blended family challenges, divorce and separation, caregiving strain, and codependency concerns.
Sessions are practical and paced to fit everyday life. He aims to help people notice patterns, try new responses, and build clearer communication. Prospective clients in Alaska can ask about how his approaches might fit their situation.
How sessions work
How Anthony uses therapeutic approaches online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening to what matters to the person and making goals together. This approach helps when someone needs a clear space to sort through family stress, grief, or choices about relationships.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and tries small experiments to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep difficulties, anger, and for building practical coping skills.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is about noticing emotions in relationships and learning different ways to connect and respond. EFT concepts can be helpful for people dealing with communication breakdowns or repeated conflicts with partners or family members.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those goals. That process is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
