LGBT therapists in Bothell, WA

Great day to you! I am Kim Rodgers, LICSW (15yrs.). To complete my Master’s of Social Work Degree, I served as a school counselor for grades K-9. Since then, I have worked in Corrections, the Homeless Department and the Vet Center (within the Federal Government), in a Behavioral Health Hospital, and in Community Health. I have a great deal of “outreach work” experience, both personally and professionally.

My name is John Michael Jennings and as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I'm passionate about creating a supportive space for clients to process what they're feeling and what they've been through. I believe that therapy is about helping people figure out how to live a life that's most authentic to who they are. I specialize in working with clients who are navigating depression, anxiety, ADHD, Autism, difficult family dynamics, complex trauma, and questions about gender identity and/or sexuality.

As your Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I want you to know that I am here for you every step of the way. You can trust that I am fully committed to your well-being and dedicated to providing you with the highest quality of care.

Something positive, warm, and uplifting about me as your PMHNP is that I genuinely believe in your strength and resilience. I see your potential for growth and healing, even during the toughest of times. Together, we'll navigate through the challenges.

Many of my clients are students, young adults, and working professionals navigating the demands of school, careers, relationships, and life transitions. They’re often trying to balance everything while wondering why life feels harder than it should.

I believe treatment works best when you better understand yourself and your options. Whether you’re experiencing symptoms of ADHD, anxiety, depression, psychosis, or another mental health concern, my approach is practical, collaborative, and tailored to your individual needs.

As a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, my goal is to help you better understand what’s going on, feel confident in your treatment, and find an approach that fits your life.

I provide warm, empathetic, neurodiversity affirming, and trauma-informed care focused in supporting women, queer, and non-binary individuals to heal the root cause of nervous system dysregulation.

This may be a good fit if you are someone who...

• has done years of personal growth work but still feels emotionally reactive in certain moments
• understands your patterns intellectually, but your nervous system hasn’t fully caught up
• values spirituality, mindfulness, or meditation, but still feels emotionally stuck
• longs for deeper authenticity in relationships
• wants therapy to be experiential, not just analytical
• is functioning well externally while privately carrying old emotional burdens

Please note: I am not accepting cis-male clients at this time.

I work with individual adults and certain families who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, sad, lonely, sensitive, anxious, or defeated. If you're feeling heavy by everything going on, or feeling frantic, or having conflict in your relationships or are just feeling lost in any way, I would love to see if I can help! I also work with family units going through transition or strain, such as conflict between a parent and their adult child, or supporting parents who are experiencing difficult things with their child or teen.

I have a lot of experience helping people through loss, whether it's a breakup, losing a job, or a loved one - including loss of a pet, which is a specialty of mine. I have special interest in supporting other therapists, and also community organizers and activists who are engaged in social justice work. Many of my clients are trans or NB, and others are gay, lesbian, or queer. Poly and kink affirming.

I offer telehealth services to clients in California, Idaho, Washington, or Virginia.
