Washington residents deserve accessible, affordable mental health support—Headway offers exactly that with 1,863 licensed providers available for in-person or virtual care. Many clients save 75% on sessions through insurance coverage, with providers offering free intake calls and availability starting as soon as tomorrow.
Some people arrive feeling mentally exhausted—like their mind is running a marathon they never signed up for. Maybe anxiety keeps you on edge, depression has drained your motivation, or ADHD makes everyday tasks feel harder than they should. Whatever brought you here, my role is simple: help you sort through the noise and find a clearer path forward. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, and life transitions, creating a space where you can talk openly, think clearly, and begin making meaningful changes.
I prioritize creating a comfortable, safe, and accepting environment from the very first session. I approach each individual without judgment and with genuine care for their personal story. Clients can expect professional, friendly, and empathetic communication that respects their unique experiences and emotions. My core belief is that healing begins with acceptance and active listening.

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding the right therapist in Washington starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Whether you're seeking support for anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, or another challenge, look for a licensed provider — such as an LMHC, LICSW, LMFT, or psychologist — who has experience with your specific needs. Reading a provider's bio can give you a sense of their style and approach before you reach out.
Washington is a large state, and access to mental health care can vary depending on where you live. Virtual therapy makes it possible to connect with a licensed provider from anywhere in the state, whether you're in downtown Seattle or a more rural area. Many providers on Headway offer both in-person and virtual sessions, so you can choose what works best for your schedule and location.
Therapy in Washington can be costly out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most straightforward ways to reduce what you pay per session. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and your out-of-pocket cost may be as low as $0 per session — though costs vary based on your specific plan and location.
