Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Anchorage, AK

I'm a licensed clinical social worker with more than 20 years of experience helping adolescents, adults and families navigate trauma, anxiety, life, transitions, relationships, and other complex challenges. My approach is practical collaborative and grounded in the belief that therapy should help people make meaningful changes in their actual lives, not simply understand the problems better. My background includes extensive work in trauma informed and experiential therapy, including EMDR, mindfulness based approaches, internal family systems, and other evidence informed practices. I work to create a comfortable straightforward environment where clients can explore what is getting in the way, recognizing their strengths and develop approaches that genuinely fit who they are.

I'm a licensed therapist and one of the few clinicians in Alaska with a PhD in

Clinical Sexology — which means I'm trained to hold the full range of human

intimacy, identity, and relationships without judgment. I specialize in

working with LGBTQ+ individuals, couples navigating non-traditional

relationship structures (poly, ENM, kink-affirming care), people in or

connected to the military, and anyone dealing with trauma, addiction,

anxiety, or depression. I've been doing this work since 2013, and I've found

that the clients who come to me are often the ones who've struggled to find

someone who truly gets where they're coming from. I'm not here to

normalize you — you're already whole. I'm here to help you move forward.

I focus mostly on behavior change. That might be a change from how you think about yourself, relationships, work, or something else. I can help you explore that. My role is to support you in believing that change is possible.

I also work in an open-ended environment. There is no contract or set number of sessions. Therapy should be flexible, and everyone's frequency is different. Most people notice growth within 10 sessions.

You're tuning into WYOU. THE Station where YOU matter! Hello, I'm Antoinette. Maybe you're feeling overwhelmed, and emotionally drained trying to hold it ALL together.

I'm here to listen and understand what it is to be YOU! Without judgment or bias. I support the healing heart and the broken heart. I'm a real, and most of all honest. No Cap.

Looking forward to hearing from You. Until then stay locked in to the station WYOU where you matter.

As a licensed clinical social worker, I believe therapy should meet you where you are while also helping you move toward where you want to be. I often compare therapy to going to the gym: it is dedicated time to strengthen the way you understand and respond to your thoughts, emotions, relationships and behaviors.

My approach is warm, direct and collaborative. You can expect empathy, compassion and acceptance, along with thoughtful questions and practical strategies that help you make meaningful changes. Your needs, experiences and goals will guide our work together.

I support adults and adolescents experiencing depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, addiction, relationship challenges and major life transitions. I also have experience working with concerns related to sexual orientation, identity, suicide prevention, family dynamics and professional stress.

You do not have to have everything figured out before beginning therapy. We can start with what is happening right now and work together from there.

I believe healing happens within a safe, genuine, and supportive relationship. My goal is to create a space where you feel accepted without judgment and free to show up exactly as you are.

Clients often describe me as warm, compassionate, and thoughtful. I combine empathy with practical, evidence-based strategies to help you better understand what you’re experiencing while also building tools you can use in your daily life.

As a therapist who primarily works with women, I understand how often women carry significant responsibilities while caring for others. Therapy is a space to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and receive the same compassion and care you so readily give to those around you. You don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone—I’m honored to support you on your journey.

My experience has taught me the importance of meeting people where they are, understanding the full context of their experiences, and providing practical, individualized support. I bring a steady, nonjudgmental approach to therapy and strive to create an environment where clients feel comfortable being honest about what they are experiencing and what they would like to change.

I believe when people find their purpose they find motivation. I am a neurodivergent therapist who understands others challenges and work at ensuring the client understands the why of what one does to foster behavioral changes.
