What is your approach to therapy?

I use a solution focused approach which means I use modalities that suit your needs best. They include CBT, DBT, EMDR, and mindfulness practices.

What can clients expect from their first session with you?

During our initial therapy session, my priority is to create a safe space for you to share your story and understand how I can best support you. You can expect:

-Introductions & Overview: To discuss the framework for our work together and a chance for you to ask any initial questions about the process.

-Sharing Your Presenting Concerns: This is your opportunity to describe what brings you to therapy. We'll focus on the challenges and symptoms you are currently experiencing, giving me a clear understanding of your primary concerns.

-Brief History Taking: To provide comprehensive support, I'll ask some questions about your relevant personal history, including past experiences, family background, and any previous therapeutic experiences. This helps illuminate patterns and influences on your current situation.

-Collaborative Goal Setting: Together, we'll begin to identify what you hope to achieve through therapy. This isn't about having all the answers now; it's about forming initial goals that will guide our work and help you move towards the changes you desire.

By the end of our first session, my aim is for you to feel heard, understood, and have a clearer sense of how we can work together to support your journey towards healing and well-being. There will always be room for suggestions concerning our work together, including keeping each other accountable.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Washington


I am Latoya Henry-Morrison, a board-certified psychiatric mental health practitioner who is experienced in the management of patients with varying mental and behavioral health needs, from all ages and stages of development, all across the lifespan. My background as a professional registered Nurse has equipped me with the relevant prerequisites of being a nurturer, which I believe is one of the most important attributes that aids patients in achieving their individual health goals sooner. I am a compassionate, caring, and empathetic individual who strives to be a voice for the voiceless and advocate for those who need guidance towards gaining and sustaining optimal baseline health.

I currently have the privilege of working with and caring for patients from both the paediatric and adult population, who present with varying psychiatric disorders, including anxiety, bipolar, OCD, PTSD, and insomnia, to name a few, by utilizing scientifically based practices/ approaches. I wholeheartedly believe that mental health is cohesive with all other aspects of life and thus examines the patient's environmental, social, emotional, and situational health to appropriately guide them in sustaining and obtaining holistic well-being

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Seattle

Searching for therapists in Seattle starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Seattle has a wide range of therapists across neighborhoods like Capitol Hill, Ballard, Fremont, and West Seattle, with experience supporting concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, and life transitions. As you compare Seattle therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and experience that match what you want help with. A therapist’s bio can show how they describe their style, what they focus on, and what you can expect in sessions.

In a major metro area like Seattle, having many options can make the search harder to narrow. Practical details can help you decide which therapists are usable matches for your schedule and routine. Consider whether you prefer in-person therapy near work, home, or transit, or virtual sessions that reduce commute time. You can also compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. For searches like counseling Seattle, counselors Seattle, or a mental health counselor in Seattle, WA, these details can help you build a clearer shortlist.

Therapy in Seattle 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 you book. Headway helps you find therapists who may accept a wide range of insurance plans, are accepting new clients, and offer virtual or in-person appointments. You can enter your insurance details to confirm what coverage is available for your specific plan in Seattle.
