About Reshma

Reshma Antony is a Washington LMHC with four years of professional experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship and family conflict, trauma and abuse, and bipolar disorder. She offers sessions in English and Malayalam and works with individuals who bring these concerns to therapy.

Reshma focuses on building trust so clients can talk through hard feelings without judgment. She aims to make the therapy room a place for honest conversation about what happened, what keeps the feelings alive, and what small changes might help day to day. She invites people to name specific problems and to try practical steps between sessions.

Her background includes working with people facing abandonment, attachment or trust issues, codependency, communication struggles, and the fallout from separation or domestic violence. She also supports those managing mood challenges and dissociative reactions after trauma. Reshma listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and helps clients test new ways of responding.

Sessions are guided by the client's goals and pace. She encourages clear, concrete steps and regular check-ins on what is or isn't working. People can expect straightforward conversation about feelings, behaviors, and next actions.

To start, a short questionnaire helps match priorities and schedule a first session. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and sessions vary in cost by location.

How evidence-based methods translate to online work

Many therapists who use evidence-based techniques describe them as focused, practical ways to reduce distress and change patterns. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new, more balanced ways of thinking to reduce anxiety and guilt. This can be useful when shameful memories or self-blame keep replaying in daily life.

Another approach centers on understanding attachment and relational patterns. It looks at how early relationship experiences shape trust and reactions in present-day relationships, and it supports trying different responses to improve communication and boundaries.

Finding the right method is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and preferences, and then suggest approaches to try. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted based on what helps most over several sessions.

Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Some formats use video, while others may rely on audio or messaging depending on what the therapist offers and what suits the client.
