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.
I have worked in the mental health field for 15+ years and love working with people from all backgrounds. I graduated from the University of Washington School of Social Work where I earned my Masters in Social Work. I have spent time working in outpatient mental health clinics, local hospitals and various non-profits in King County. My passions include providing gender-affirming care, support for members of the LGBTQ+ community and adolescents.
