Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Washington

I currently accept individual adult clients only through Headway. I do not provide couples or family therapy through this platform at this time.

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with individuals, couples, and LGBTQ+ clients seeking deeper self-understanding, emotional healing, and more connected relationships. My approach is warm, relational, trauma-informed, and grounded in the belief that healing happens through safety, honesty, and meaningful connection.

I specialize in relationship therapy, anxiety, depression, identity exploration, attachment wounds, complex trauma, and psychedelic assisted psychotherapy. I also support clients navigating life transitions, grief, shame, self-worth, communication challenges, and patterns that keep them feeling stuck or disconnected from themselves and others.

My work draws from Emotionally Focused Therapy, the Gottman Method, Internal Family Systems, somatic awareness, humanistic and existential therapy, and trauma-informed care. I help clients slow down, listen inward, understand their patterns, and develop more compassionate and empowered ways of relating.

As a queer-affirming therapist, I am especially passionate about supporting LGBTQ+ clients and relationships. I strive to create a space where clients can bring their full selves—without judgment—and explore healing in a way that honors their identities, histories, relationships, spirituality, and lived experience.

My name is Christiana Nmezi, and I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC).

I provide compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care for children, adolescents, and adults experiencing a variety of mental health concerns. I specialize in working with individuals who are struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, trauma-related disorders, PTSD, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), panic disorder and insomnia. I understand that every person's story is unique, and I believe that effective treatment begins with listening, understanding, and building s trusting therapeutic relationship.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing compassionate, evidence-based care to adolescents and adults. I have more than nine years of clinical experience across psychiatric care, correctional health, critical care, and medical-surgical nursing, which gives me a broad perspective when supporting clients with a wide range of mental health needs. I treat concerns including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma-related disorders, ADHD, and other psychiatric conditions. I believe every client deserves to feel heard, respected, and actively involved in their care.

Psychotherapy provides a safe place to discuss fears, thoughts, and difficult decisions we as humans must make during our journey in life. I believe we are capable of making life changes with the right tools. I am here to listen without judgement. I believe we all have a story to share. Being heard is one of the most important aspects of communication.

My passion is working with clients who have experienced some form of trauma in their lives. By sharing your story, we can begin to process the trauma from experience to a new understanding, while remaining in the present.
