Anthony Washington

Anthony Washington is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Alaska. He brings 30 years of clinical experience and focuses on common, pressing concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and addiction. He also helps people facing relationship and family challenges, sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem, bipolar symptoms, ADHD, and caregiving strain.

Anthony uses straightforward, person-centered methods in sessions. He draws on mindfulness practices to help people calm racing thoughts. He also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot and change unhelpful thinking, and emotionally focused ideas to address relationship patterns.

He trained for a master’s degree in Community Counseling and has worked across teen and adult settings, with individuals and couples. That history gives him experience with domestic violence, substance use, communication breakdowns, and loss. He describes his style as eclectic and strengths based, so sessions focus on what already helps you while building new skills.

In practical terms, Anthony aims to help people talk through problems, build coping tools, and improve day-to-day routines like sleep and emotion management. He also addresses more complex issues such as abandonment, blended family conflict, codependency, and first responder stress.

People who want to begin will be asked a few questions to match with a provider and then schedule according to availability. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How Anthony Uses Mindfulness and Practical Therapies Online

Anthony often combines mindfulness techniques with client-centered and cognitive behavioral methods. Mindfulness Therapy involves simple practices to help notice thoughts and bodily responses, which can reduce reactivity to stress and improve sleep and focus. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and building on a person’s strengths so they feel understood and can guide the pace of change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, addiction urges, and mood swings.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. That may mean practicing mindfulness between sessions, trying CBT exercises for specific problems, or using emotionally focused ideas to address patterns in relationships.

Confirm current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, cut travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce the need to be on camera for every meeting. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to remote work so therapy aligns with what someone can realistically do during the week.
