About Anthony
Anthony Washington is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Alaska. He brings about 30 years of counseling experience to conversations about stress, anxiety, addiction, ADHD, depression, grief, and relationship strain. He writes plainly and listens carefully to what people say about their daily struggles.
He uses a practical style that focuses on strengths and clear steps forward. Sessions often include problem-solving, skills practice, and tools people can try between meetings.
Background and approach
Anthony blends several approaches so the work fits each person's needs rather than following a single script. Clients commonly talk through patterns that keep them stuck - for example sleep trouble, anger, low self-esteem, or trouble communicating with loved ones. Anthony offers ways to notice those patterns and try different responses.
He also supports people coping with trauma, loss, and big life changes, helping them rebuild routines and manage strong feelings. His approach draws on client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, emotion-focused work, mindfulness practices, and relationship-focused methods. That mix lets him shift between teaching practical skills and exploring emotional pieces that affect behavior.
Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented, with time spent on what helps most right now. Anthony trained at the University of South Alabama and holds a master’s in community counseling. He provides video, phone, chat, and text-based sessions and works with English-speaking clients located in Alaska.
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and building on a person's strengths. It helps when someone needs a therapist who listens without judgment and supports the person's own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on practical skills - identifying thoughts and behaviors that cause distress and trying new strategies to change them; it's useful for anxiety, sleep problems, and mood shifts. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people name and shift core emotional patterns that affect relationships and personal coping, which can be useful for couples work and strong attachment-related feelings.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works together with each person to decide which method or mix of methods fits their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaborative process often begins with a few sessions to see what helps and then adapts over time.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people use visual cues and longer conversations, phone can be a good option when bandwidth is limited, chat allows quicker check-ins, and messaging supports short updates or ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help fit sessions into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while keeping continuity of care with a licensed professional.
