Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Renton, WA covered by United Healthcare

Hi My name is Hilary Chentow. I am a licensed clinical social worker living in PA and practicing in PA, WA and DE. I use CBT, DBT, mindfulness, Polyvagal theory and Internal Family Systems and will share resources in abundance. I was a teacher before I made a midlife career change to become a therapist. I am not a one size fits all therapist. And I am ok with that. Right fit is important.

I am accepting new clients! Available times: Th 9a, 10a, 1p, 3pm.

You're the person everyone leans on, steady at work, dependable at home. But on the inside, you're battling with intrusive thoughts, panic attacks, people pleasing, or having trouble focusing. It's become too much! I’m here to tell you that not only is it okay to need help, helping people uncover what’s underneath the stress and create a life filled with joy is my jam! Together we will work to untangle those racing thoughts and patterns that keep your nervous system on high alert, then develop skills and boundaries that help you feel steadier in real life.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who provides compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care for adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, life transitions, and mood-related concerns. My goal is to create a safe, respectful space where clients feel heard, understood, and supported.

I take a personalized approach to care, recognizing that mental health is influenced by many factors, including life experiences, relationships, work stress, sleep, physical health, and daily functioning. I work collaboratively with clients to better understand their symptoms, identify treatment goals, and develop a plan that supports stability, clarity, and improved quality of life.

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.

I’m a board‐certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, and I care deeply about helping adults feel understood and supported. I work with people experiencing mood, anxiety, trauma‐related, and neurodivergent challenges, and I try to make the process feel calm, collaborative, and human. As a woman of color, I understand how meaningful it can be to have a provider who recognizes the impact of identity, culture, and lived experience on mental health. I’m committed to providing inclusive, affirming care for LGBTQIA+ individuals and people from all backgrounds. My practice centers on safety, respect, and whole‐person wellbeing through medication management, education, and supportive guidance tailored to your goals.

I believe effective mental health care starts with feeling heard, respected, and understood. I take a collaborative, non-judgmental approach and work closely with you to understand your goals, concerns, and life context—not just your symptoms.

I value clear communication and transparency, so I’ll explain diagnoses, treatment options, and medications in a way that’s easy to understand. My goal is to help you feel confident and informed about your care, not rushed or overwhelmed.

I provide evidence-based medication management while considering the whole person—mental, emotional, and physical health. I welcome questions and encourage active participation in treatment decisions so we can create a plan that truly fits your needs.

Whether you’re seeking care for anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, or ongoing medication management, I aim to create a supportive, safe space where progress feels achievable and care feels personal.

Having grown up in Taiwan, studied in the U.S., and spent a few years in China and Singapore, I truly understand what it feels like to adapt to new environments while trying to stay true to yourself. You work hard, yet it never feels like enough. You’re overwhelmed but can’t slow down. Your mind races, making it hard to feel grounded. You want stronger connections, more balance, and to feel present in your life. Most of all, you want to feel at ease with yourself and trust that who you are is enough. It’s not just about adjusting; it’s about finding a way to thrive while honoring where you come from. Since 2008, I’ve worked with English- and Mandarin-speaking adults facing major life shifts, whether it’s stress, relationship struggles, parenting challenges, anxiety, depression, loneliness, or career uncertainty. You do not have to face these challenges alone; together, we'll create a path forward that feels authentic and sustainable.
