Psychiatrists in Federal Way, WA

I have twenty years’ experience providing healthcare services to a wide range of populations and within a variety of specialties. In the last decade, I have provided psychiatric care as a registered nurse in inpatient psychiatric units. This experience has given me an understanding of individuals with severe mental illnesses, including depression, anxiety, PTSD, and psychosis.

Psychiatric care including medication management, treatment of Substance Use Disorders and therapy. In person and telehealth available. My approach is collaborative, trauma aware and person centered. I believe that individuals know themselves best and have found that creating a therapeutic partnership is the most effective path towards healing and wellness. In my experience, all people have phases in their lives where they would benefit from a partnership with a psychiatric provider.

I'm passionate about the importance of people having easy access to mental healthcare. Before joining the healthcare field, I taught in low-income and underserved communities. Seeing the impact that a lack of mental healthcare had in these areas drove me to return to school and begin a career focused on providing that much-needed care. In my eyes, treatment can significantly increase the quality of life both mentally as well as physically.

Greetings, I am Bernard Mwangi, a seasoned nurse practitioner driven by a profound commitment to guiding individuals along their mental health journeys. With a wealth of experience, I specialize in conducting comprehensive evaluations, adeptly identifying mental health hurdles, and tailoring personalized treatment plans for each unique client. My approach is founded on empathy, understanding, and a dedication to fostering a safe, judgment-free space where clients feel heard and supported. I believe in the power of compassionate listening, recognizing that every individual's story is unique and deserving of respect.

I take a collaborative approach with my patients. I like to know what my patients’ goals are so I can tailor the treatment to help them achieve their goals as much as possible. Knowing what’s important to my patients helps me know what treatments to recommend or when to suggest a change to the treatment. I find that patients experience the most success if they are open to talking about their treatment options.
