I'm Dr. Jason Johnson, a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with a Doctor of Nursing Practice from Washington State University. I have over 15 years of experience in mental health, starting as a counselor before advancing into psychiatry. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and weight-related mental health concerns, using a comprehensive approach that includes therapy, medications, nutrition, and hormone support. My goal is to create a supportive, judgment-free environment where we work together to help you feel your best.
Hello! I am Renell Kumeh, an advanced practice registered nurse, with dual certification in family medicine and psychiatry, licensed in OR, WA, DC, TX, FL, NV, ND, CT, MA and pending licensures in other states. At the core of my values is treating others the way I would like to be treated.
Hello! I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with advanced training from Drexel University. I provide compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care for adolescents, adults, and older adults. My practice integrates thoughtful medication management with supportive psychotherapy, lifestyle strategies, and collaborative care to help you feel heard, informed, and empowered in your treatment.
Mental health has been a deeply personal passion of mine for most of my life — growing up with a family history of mental health challenges gave me an early understanding of how much the right support can change someone's life. I specialize in treating ADHD, anxiety, and depression, and I work with many clients who come to me feeling anxious, overwhelmed, burned out, and unsure of where to turn. What sets me apart is that I genuinely listen — not just to what you're saying, but to what's beneath it. Outside of my work, you can find me hiking, spending time at the beach, or getting lost in music, all of which remind me of the importance of balance and restoration, values I bring into my practice every day.
I’m Dr. Emem Nkanga, Doctor of Nursing Practice. I believe that everyone deserves a personalized and compassionate approach to mental health care. I bring over 20 years of experience in healthcare, with a focused dedication to psychiatry over the past 4 years. My passion lies in supporting mental health and emotional well-being.
I work with children ages 10 and above, adolescents, and adults from diverse backgrounds who are experiencing challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, bipolar disorder, OCD, insomnia, and more.
Hi there, my name is Gina and I specialize in helping those who are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, or major life transitions to find balance, clarity, and hope.
My approach is compassionate and collaborative. I draw from Brief Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Strengths-Based Therapy to help you build on your natural resilience, develop healthy coping skills, and move toward meaningful change. I believe that healing begins when you feel seen, heard, and supported. Together, we’ll focus on helping you rediscover your strengths.
My goal is that you feel genuinely seen, supported, and understood in our work together. I bring a warm, grounded, and collaborative style to therapy, helping adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship stress, and long‐standing emotional patterns. I pay close attention to the deeper themes beneath the surface—your beliefs, your protective strategies, and the ways you’ve learned to cope—so we can create meaningful, lasting change. My goal is to help you feel safe, empowered, and more connected to yourself from the very beginning.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Kent, WA
Searching for therapists in Kent starts with finding someone whose experience fits what you want support with. Therapists may work with concerns like anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, stress, grief, and life transitions. As you compare Kent therapists, look for specialties, therapy styles, and client focus areas listed in each bio. Details like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or experience with specific communities can help you decide whether a therapist’s approach matches your needs.
In a smaller city like Kent, local appointment options may vary by neighborhood, schedule, and specialty. Virtual therapy can expand your choices across Washington while keeping care easier to fit into your week. Some people prefer an in-person office near Downtown Kent, Panther Lake, or the Green River area, while others prefer the flexibility of virtual sessions. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for availability, whether they are accepting new patients, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Therapy in Kent can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and get a clearer estimate before you book. Headway helps you find therapists who match your preferences and lets you confirm coverage and view estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. You can browse profiles, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
