I am authentic and honest in my work with others in therapy. I began my professional clinical journey in my 40's after a successful business career. I have chosen to continuously learn and grown clinically to serve those who I work with so we can work together to resolve any behavioral health issue they are facing. I work mostly with adults and tend to do a lot of couples work focusing on relationship building and restoration. My background is also heavy in substance use treatment.
I specialize in trauma-informed care and evidence-based treatment for PTSD, anxiety, depression, mood disorders and military families. With over a decade of experience, I offer culturally responsive therapy in English and Spanish. My telehealth-only practice provides a safe, supportive space for healing, growth, and emotional wellness.
Are you the person who keeps it all together but you're exhausted doing it? I specialize in substance abuse, anxiety, burnout, and depression. Many of my patients spent decades being told they were fine, just anxious, just disorganized, just needed to try harder. They weren't. They needed the right evaluation and the right support.
I offer telehealth psychiatric care across Washington State. Most patients are seen within 1–2 weeks. I accept Cigna, Aetna, Quest Behavioral Health, and Carolina plans.
If you're ready to stop managing symptoms alone and start actually understanding your brain, I'd love to work with you.
I currently accept individual adult clients only through Headway. I do not provide couples or family therapy through this platform at this time.
I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with individuals, couples, and LGBTQ+ clients seeking deeper self-understanding, emotional healing, and more connected relationships. My approach is warm, relational, trauma-informed, and grounded in the belief that healing happens through safety, honesty, and meaningful connection.
I specialize in relationship therapy, anxiety, depression, identity exploration, attachment wounds, complex trauma, and psychedelic assisted psychotherapy. I also support clients navigating life transitions, grief, shame, self-worth, communication challenges, and patterns that keep them feeling stuck or disconnected from themselves and others.
My work draws from Emotionally Focused Therapy, the Gottman Method, Internal Family Systems, somatic awareness, humanistic and existential therapy, and trauma-informed care. I help clients slow down, listen inward, understand their patterns, and develop more compassionate and empowered ways of relating.
As a queer-affirming therapist, I am especially passionate about supporting LGBTQ+ clients and relationships. I strive to create a space where clients can bring their full selves—without judgment—and explore healing in a way that honors their identities, histories, relationships, spirituality, and lived experience.
It's not easy starting therapy and investing time in yourself, but you've already done the first step! My experience has primarily been focused in clients with eating disorders and co-occurring diagnoses. With that said, I also have extensive experience working with relationship challenges, anxiety, self-harm, and suicidality. I generally like to pull from my knowledge of various therapy modalities such as DBT, CBT, FBT and EFFT. I also really enjoy self-compassion work. Your goals are always my top priority, and I am here to support you every step of the way.
Outside of work, I enjoy live music, spending time with friends, and hanging out with my dogs, Nala and Toni. These personal interests help me stay grounded and bring balance to my life, which I believe is crucial for overall well-being.
If you're ready to take the next step, I'm here to help you navigate your journey towards healing and growth. Let's work together to achieve your goals!
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Doctorate in Social Work, and I bring both clinical expertise and real life understanding into the therapy space. My professional background includes years of direct clinical practice as well as leadership roles in complex, high stress systems, including serving as a Mental Health Director. These experiences have shaped my ability to support individuals who are navigating pressure, responsibility, and emotional overwhelm while still being expected to function at a high level.
I work best with clients who are strong on the outside but struggling internally. Many of the people I support are women, mothers, professionals, caregivers, and helpers who are used to showing up for others while neglecting their own emotional needs. I have a particular passion for working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, imposter syndrome, burnout, life transitions, relationship stress, identity concerns, and trauma related to past or ongoing stressors.
Therapy with me is not about having all the answers. It is about learning how to trust yourself, set healthy boundaries, and show up for your life with more compassion and confidence.
Taking the first step toward better mental health isn't always easy, but you don't have to do it alone. Whether you're feeling anxious, overwhelmed, depressed, or stuck, I'm here to provide a safe, supportive space where you can feel heard and understood.
As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC), I work with you to create a personalized treatment plan that fits your unique needs and goals.
My name is Kylene, and I genuinely love what I do. I work with adolescents and adults, and have experience and training in treating a range of issues, including trauma, anxiety, and depression.
I want to make the most of our time together, so I use approaches like EMDR and CBT, which have been well-established as evidence-based treatments.
I offer professional Counseling for adult individuals (adult and teens), as well as couples, facing a variety of challenges. Whether you’re looking for support for trauma recovery, chemical dependency, abandonment issues, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, or other concerns, I would be honored to help you find tools to overcome your trials. I am here to be a landing spot, a safe place, and an encouraging person for you. My hope is to assist you in processing any pain, trauma, or wounds that are burdening you and to help you identify what is most important for you to pursue going forward in life.
I am passionate about working with people who've gone through major life struggles. I will listen to your story with care and compassion as you share whatever is on your mind and heart. I am committed to providing a non-judgmental, emotionally available approach as we seek to determine which tools will best serve you in your current circumstances.
My goal is to empower you to find a more accurate and defined version of yourself. As we discover your core values, I hope you will also discover which aspects of life you want to pursue more, and what you want to do less of.
