Are you facing a life transition, mental health challenge, or addiction struggle that feels overwhelming to navigate on your own?
You're not alone. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW/LICSW) and Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor, I specialize in helping individuals find stability, clarity, and hope during some of life's most difficult moments. Whether you're coping with anxiety, depression, substance use, grief, major life changes, or the challenges of co-occurring mental health and addiction concerns, I provide a supportive space where healing and growth can begin.
For more than 12 years, I've worked across mental health, addiction treatment, crisis intervention, medical settings, and community-based care. I've supported individuals and families through recovery, psychiatric crises, cognitive decline, and significant life transitions. These experiences have taught me that resilience exists even in the hardest circumstances—and that meaningful change is possible.
My approach is compassionate, practical, and nonjudgmental. Very little surprises me, and nothing is too complex to discuss. Together, we'll build on your strengths, develop effective coping strategies, and create a path forward that feels achievable and authentic to you.

Hello, I'm Heidi Fanslow, PMHNP-BC, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and supportive care for adolescents and adults. I have more than 30 years of healthcare experience, with a background spanning oncology, inpatient psychiatry, behavioral health, and nursing education. After earning my Master of Science in Nursing from Gonzaga University, I transitioned into advanced psychiatric practice with a passion for helping individuals navigate life's challenges and improve their overall well-being.
I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, mood disorders, OCD, and other mental health conditions. I recognize that each person's story is unique, and I strive to understand the full picture—including medical factors, life stressors, relationships, sleep, and daily functioning—to develop a treatment plan tailored to their individual needs and goals.
I’ve spent 10 years working with teens and families, and I care deeply about helping people feel understood. I create a space where you can be yourself and feel a sense of belonging, without judgment. I value both family connection and your privacy. Most of all, I believe real change starts with a genuine, comfortable relationship.
Psychotherapy provides a safe place to discuss fears, thoughts, and difficult decisions we as humans must make during our journey in life. I believe we are capable of making life changes with the right tools. I am here to listen without judgement. I believe we all have a story to share. Being heard is one of the most important aspects of communication.
My passion is working with clients who have experienced some form of trauma in their lives. By sharing your story, we can begin to process the trauma from experience to a new understanding, while remaining in the present.

Find the right therapist 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 an Addiction Therapist in Bothell
Searching for therapists in Bothell starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want to work on. Therapists often support people with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, life transitions, and work stress. As you compare options, look for listed specialties and therapy approaches that fit your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care. A therapist’s profile can also show how they describe their style, what concerns they focus on, and what to expect in sessions.
Bothell is a smaller market than Seattle, so local appointment options may vary by schedule, office location, and specialty. Virtual therapy can expand your options across Washington while still connecting you with a therapist licensed to see you in the state. As you narrow your search, consider whether you prefer in-person or virtual sessions, how soon the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether their availability fits your calendar. Reading bios before booking can help you compare communication style, session structure, and fit signals in one place.
Therapy in Bothell can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before starting care. Headway helps you search for therapists who are accepting new clients, check your insurance details, and see estimated costs before you book. You can browse therapists in Bothell, review profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
