Dr. George Langfield

Specialties:  I specialize in diagnosing and treating mental illnesses such as depression, anxiety disorders, posttraumatic stress disorder and a wide variety of other psychological issues. I also focus on self-growth, self-esteem improvement, and relationship counseling. I primarily use cognitive/behavioral techniques and have developed strong interpersonal counseling skills as well as over 30 years of experience as a therapist.

History:  I have been a counselor and mental health therapist in Pullman for over 30 years, since graduating from the University of Idaho in 1988. I have worked in Community Mental Health for all those years and added my private practice in 1993. As of February 2025, I will be closing my physical office and will exclusively provide telehealth services through Headway Therapy. Please follow the link to my page at Headway Therapy for a list of accepted insurances.  In addition to the insurances listed on Headway Therapy, I also accept traditional Medicare.

I am originally from Denver, Colorado and moved to Moscow, Idaho in 1986 to attend graduate school at the University of Idaho. I graduated with a Masters Degree in Counseling and Human Services in 1988. I fell in love with the Palouse and decided this would be my home. In 1988 I began emergency services work for Whitman County Mental Health (now Palouse River Counseling) and spent one year working at the University of Idaho Student Counseling Center. In 1989, I began working full time at WCMH and have been there since. I received my Specialist Degree in 1991 and my Ph.D. in 2007. I have been licensed as a psychologist in the state of Washington since 2009 and Idaho since 2020. While I love my private practice, I still value community mental health and plan to continue that work in conjunction with my private practice.
