Reshma Antony, LMHC — Therapist in Washington

Hi there, I'm Reshma!

I’m a licensed therapist who works with children, teens, and adults (ages 5–65) to navigate anxiety, OCD, trauma, and intense emotions. I became a therapist to better understand human suffering and the path to self-compassion.

My focus

My ideal client is anyone who is willing to put in the work to become the best version of themselves. I believe in each person’s ability to self-heal, with the guidance of a therapeutic relationship. Even with the best therapy, in my opinion, the most significant progress is made outside of sessions.

My approach

My approach is grounded in EMDR, DBT, mindfulness, and exposure therapy. My style is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth—I believe therapy should feel like a sacred space where you can be yourself.

My communication style

As a therapist, my communication style is warm, validating, and person-centered. I focus on building trust and openness so that sacred moments can emerge in session. I adapt my approach to meet each client where they are, blending structure with flexibility.

My journey to mental healthcare

My path to becoming a therapist began long before I ever sat with a client. While I was studying pre-med, I found myself struggling with my own mental health. I was driven, hardworking, and determined to succeed, but underneath, I felt overwhelmed, anxious, and at times disconnected from myself.

My goals for you

I help clients reach their goals by working collaboratively and tailoring therapy to their unique needs. My first step is to create a safe and trusting space where clients feel comfortable sharing openly without fear of judgment.

Our first session

Clients can expect a supportive, nonjudgmental space where they can be fully themselves. Together, we’ll work toward feeling more grounded, reducing anxiety, building healthier coping skills, and healing from painful experiences.
