Hi, I'm Angela, a board certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. Before becoming a PMHNP, I spent over a decade as a nurse working in emergency rooms, correctional facilities, and inpatient psychiatric units, so I've seen mental health care from just about every angle.

I offer virtual psychiatric care to adults and adolescents in Washington State, with a focus on anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, and trauma.

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 Psychiatrist in Washington
Finding psychiatrists in Washington starts with understanding the type of care you want to schedule. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Therapists provide talk therapy and may work alongside a prescriber. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or OCD, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and approach to see how they match your needs. Across Washington, options can vary between larger cities and rural areas, so the right fit may depend on both clinical focus and access.
Your search may look different in Seattle, Spokane, Tacoma, or smaller communities across the state. Some people prefer in-person appointments, while others choose virtual visits for schedule flexibility or access to more psychiatrists. Medication management appointments are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. You may also choose to work with both a therapist and a prescriber. As you compare options, look at appointment availability, whether the psychiatrist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading bios can help you understand communication style, session structure, and areas of focus before you book.
Psychiatric care in Washington can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway lets you enter your insurance details, review estimated costs upfront, and find psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners who are accepting new patients with your plan. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to compare care options, read profiles, 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.
