Lizz Jenkins

Lizz Jenkins

Therapist

Virtual • Washington


I provide warm, empathetic, neurodiversity affirming, and trauma-informed care focused in supporting women, queer, and non-binary individuals to heal the root cause of nervous system dysregulation.

This may be a good fit if you are someone who...

  • has done years of personal growth work but still feels emotionally reactive in certain moments
  • understands your patterns intellectually, but your nervous system hasn’t fully caught up
  • values spirituality, mindfulness, or meditation, but still feels emotionally stuck
  • longs for deeper authenticity in relationships
  • wants therapy to be experiential, not just analytical
  • is functioning well externally while privately carrying old emotional burdens

Please note: I am not accepting cis-male clients at this time.

Rebecca Mooty

Therapist

Virtual • Washington


With 33 years of experience as a clinical social worker, I've worked alongside people of all ages-teenagers navigating identify and stress, adults managing trauma, anxiety and mood disorders and seniors facing grief, loss and major life transitions. I've practiced in community mental health, crisis response, primary care and outpatient settings-this variety and extent of experience contributes to how I show up for you in every session.

I specialize in anxiety, depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder and stress management. I work with adolescents, adults and older adults and I accept many major insurance plans-Including Aetna, Cigna/Evernorth, BCBS, Regence, Carelong and Quest. All sessions are virtual, which means you can access consistent, quality care without leaving home.

I hold a Masters of Social Work from Virginia Commonwealth University and am fully licensed in Oregon and Washington.

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 Washington

Searching for therapists in Washington starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. Across the state, therapy needs and available therapists can vary between urban and rural areas. You may be looking for care related to anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, or life transitions. As you compare Washington therapists, look for specialties, therapy approaches, and experience that match your needs. A therapist’s profile can help you understand whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.

Location and format can also shape your search. If you live near Seattle, Spokane, or Tacoma, you may have more in-person options nearby, while virtual therapy can expand access across other parts of Washington. Consider whether you prefer meeting in an office, meeting virtually, or having both options available. It can also help to compare appointment availability, scheduling flexibility, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can give you a clearer sense of each therapist’s communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.

The cost of therapy in Washington can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for licensed therapists who take insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and choose from therapists accepting new patients. Nationally, Headway partners with 70+ insurance plans. You can browse therapists, review profiles, check your coverage, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
