Renton residents deserve accessible mental healthcare. Headway's network of 1,909 providers serves Downtown Renton, The Landing, and surrounding areas with talk therapy and medication management. Many sessions are covered by insurance, helping you focus on your wellness.
Many of the clients I work with look like they are holding everything together, but inside they feel anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in painful patterns. I support teens, adults, couples, and families in Tukwila, Renton, Burien, Seatac, Federal Way, Kent, and across Washington through telehealth. I help clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, low self-esteem, grief, relationship conflict, family stress, and major life transitions. My style is warm, collaborative, trauma-informed, and practical.
Welcome! and thank you for taking the time to do this step for yourself. As a psychiatric provider, I am committed to working with you and your family on your journey to healing and discovering your best self throughout this process. I am a board certified Adult Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), currently licensed in Washington State and Massachusetts. I have been working in the healthcare industry for over two decades, treating adults age 18+ with chronic severe anxiety disorders, mood disorders, psychotic disorders, trauma, personality disorders, substance abuse disorders, and co-occurring disorders.
I am a licensed mental health counselor. I work adult clients in private practice setting
My approach is person-centered, focusing on you, the client, and the moment-to-moment engagement, discovering insights together. I can help you discover insights into barriers, and the constructive solutions to overcoming those barriers. Each person has the right to live a life free of negative thoughts and experiences—a life of healthy well-being.
As a clinician and a person, it’s important that the therapy is working. I also try to bring humor to session and a little of myself to the room. I feel it’s important to be authentic to the process.
I am enthusiastic Washingtonian and happy to call Seattle home. I received my undergraduate degree in Medical Anthropology and Global Health from the University of Washington, and my Doctorate from the University of North Dakota. When partnering with me, expect a clinician who is focused on you, your culture, and how all of these factors impact your experience. I lead with curiosity, collecting and using data to inform our work together and guide my integration of evidenced based practice.
I am a licensed clinical social worker who has been practicing for over 25 years. After getting my Masters in Social Work in 2000, I spent many years working in medical social work, helping people who were living with chronic health conditions. I also have worked in hospice and am able to provide support with grief and loss, as well as emotional support for family caregivers. I offer a safe space to process difficult emotions, as well as stress reduction through mindfulness.
I'm a therapist working in the Tacoma area. I work with people who have anxiety, depression, and trauma. A few areas of focus for me are relationships, shame, anger, life changes, and identity, though this is by no means a comprehensive list.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Renton, WA
Searching for therapists in Renton starts with knowing what kind of support you want from care. A therapist may help with concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, or work stress. As you compare options for Renton therapy, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to focus on. Reading profiles can also help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Renton has local options for therapy, but availability can vary by schedule, specialty, and office location. Virtual appointments can expand your choices across Washington while keeping care connected to your routine. As you narrow your search, consider whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Provider bios can give you a clearer sense of communication style, session structure, and experience with concerns like marriage counseling in Renton, family stress, or individual counseling in Washington.
Therapy in Renton 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 care begins. Nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans, and you can verify your benefits and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. You can browse therapists in Renton, review detailed bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
