Hello! My name is Katherine but everyone calls me Kat. I am a Licensed Master of Social Worker and have been a therapist for 7 years. I enjoy assisting people in finding solutions and bringing peace to their lives. I would be honored to help you find your way through your hardships.
My specialties: PTSD, OCD, and Adults with ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and addictions.
Let's stop the anxiety spiral together! I I work with adolescents and adults. Drop your mask in here and learn to stop apologizing for who you truly are. Feel more comfortables in situations and stop spiraling using practical tools. It's time to stop feeling ashamed how how you think things should be! Anxiety, Trauma, ADHD and creative burnout can be overwhelming. Perhaps your brain won't turn off at night, decision-making feels impossible, or even basic tasks drain your energy. Especially when they show up in every part of life; work, your relationships, kids or parenting. That's okay. We can work with your brain and body.
I’m Stephanie Jairam, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and Family Nurse Practitioner. I work with adults and adolescents navigating ADHD, anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, insomnia, PTSD, PMDD, OCD, and other mood-related concerns who are seeking supportive, effective treatment.
My background in healthcare gives me a well-rounded perspective. I take a holistic approach, recognizing the close connection between mental and physical health. I’m known for being collaborative, non-judgmental, and thorough, and I strive to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported throughout your care.
Kayla, a licensed Clinical Social Worker with a background in community mental health, recognized the profound disparities in access to mental health care within BIPOC communities. Inspired by a vision of creating a space where healing is both inclusive and affordable, she founded Helen’s Project with the belief that everyone deserves access to quality mental health support, regardless of their background or financial situation.Helen’s Project operates on the principle that culturally competent and empathetic mental health care is essential for holistic well-being. The organization collaborates with a diverse team of mental health professionals who not only possess clinical expertise but also understand the unique cultural nuances and challenges faced by the BIPOC community.

Hello. My name is Julie and I am a licensed mental health counselor. In addition to working in WA state in a clinic setting, I have spent five years in Singapore working as a social/emotional counselor in a large international high school. In that role, I supported students and families from over 75 countries in the world. That helps me to view counseling from an inclusive and culturally sensitive space. I now make my home in the beautiful PNW and am excited to ground my practice here.
Hello! It's great to meet you. I'm Autumn Halliwell, a psychotherapist and clinical social worker. I work with clients who are facing significant life changes, experiencing mood disorders, working through trauma and its impact, or just need some help finding some insight in the moment. I identify as a member of the LGBTQIA+, kink, and polyamorous communities.
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.
I do not candy coat, fluff or any of that; I'm a direct and assertive communicator. I am passionate and professional.
