Yes. For mild Generalized Anxiety Disorder (ICD-10 dx code) F41.1 --- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is very effective. My colleagues licensed for such work include:

PhD - Psychologist
PsyD - Psychologist
LMHC - Licensed Mental Health Counselor
LCSW - License Clinical Social Worker.

I hope the information helps.
