About Anthonie
Anthonie Etienne is an LMFT - Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 12 years of experience based in Washington. He works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, anger, and depression. He also addresses attachment issues, blended family problems, communication difficulties, fatherhood issues, and multicultural concerns.
Anthonie uses straightforward conversations to identify what is causing strain. He helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings and on clearer communication at home.
He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. He also uses mindfulness practices to help people pause and respond rather than react. Solution-Focused Therapy is used to set concrete goals and to find small changes that move things forward.
Anthonie describes working in a way that listens closely and responds without judgment. He aims to help people increase self-control, strengthen relationships, and build steadier routines. He talks through problems and helps people plan next steps they can try in daily life.
People who come for help usually have clear practical aims like improving communication, managing strong emotions, or finding more balance. The therapist encourages testing new behaviors, tracking progress, and adjusting methods until something works better.
How his approaches translate to online work
Online sessions can use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map thoughts and actions into clear steps people can try between meetings. CBT tasks such as thought records and behavioral experiments are easy to assign and review during an online session.Mindfulness Therapy in video or phone sessions focuses on short practices that help reduce reactivity. These exercises teach noticing sensations and returning attention to a chosen focus, which can help with anxiety and mood regulation.
Solution-Focused Therapy narrows work to concrete goals and next steps. In remote sessions this often looks like setting one or two small actions to try before the next meeting and then checking what changed.
Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods match the client's goals and daily demands, and will adjust plans based on what is working.
The original biography does not list which session formats are used, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a workday or family routine, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Those practical benefits help people try focused techniques without reshuffling their entire schedule.
