I provide psychiatric medication management to kids, teens, and adults struggling with low mood, overwhelming anxiety, post-traumatic stress, and other challenges. If you are finding it is hard to enjoy life, to connect with others, to eat and sleep well, to make it to school or get all the adulting done, we can explore these challenges and see if psychiatric medications might help. I love working with queer and trans clients, neurodivergent clients, and trauma survivors.

Find the right psychiatrist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Seattle
Finding the right psychiatrist in Seattle starts with knowing what type of mental health care you want to access. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and provide medication management. Psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can also diagnose and prescribe through their license. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or other behavioral health concerns in Seattle, WA, a prescriber may be one fit. Therapists can also be a fit for talk therapy, and some people choose one or both types of care based on their needs.
Seattle has many mental health providers across neighborhoods like Capitol Hill, Ballard, Fremont, and South Lake Union, so a focused search can help you compare options more easily. For psychiatric care, consider appointment availability, virtual or in-person format, and whether the psychiatrist lists experience with your concerns. Medication management appointments are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand each psychiatrist’s approach, session structure, and communication style.
Psychiatric care in Seattle can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists in Seattle, Washington who are accepting new patients, match your preferences, and work with your plan. You can compare bios, review availability, and book directly when you are ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
