At Horizonview Health’s Behavioral Health practice, four therapists offer a variety of approaches to meet your needs. All of our therapists believe in a client centered approach to therapy. Sessions are 50 minutes in length and we are in network with many insurance providers. We also offer cash pay and super bill options. We offer both in person and telehealth sessions. All clinicians are trained in taking Bariatric assessments for clients to qualify for medical weight loss surgery.

The world we live in is an ever changing and fast paced place that can often times add complexities to our lives, our relationships, our internal thoughts and emotions that we didn’t anticipate or were not ready for. In these times it can be helpful to seek therapy to have someone support your growth into the person you want to be in a respectful, empathetic, and judgment-free environment.

Update: Not accepting new clients - I believe that people make sense in the context of their story and that the key to healing is within each one of us. My approach to therapy has evolved over the years as I began understanding that what most people are looking for is someone who can help them with a deeper understanding of how they became exactly who they are today.

I have been in private practice since 1994, providing services for children, adolescents, adults, families, and couples. As a Licensed Clinical Psychologist, I have learned to treat a variety of conditions including Depression, Anxiety, PTSD, Personality Disorders, marital problems, and other issues. I also provide a variety of assessment services including disability evaluations, psychological evaluations, custody evaluations, intelligence and academic achievement assessment, and personality assessments. I provide in person and telehealth options for treatment.

ACCEPTING CLIENTS. I love to help women that feel they are being crushed by anxiety and expectations. I help my clients gain confidence, set boundaries, and begin prioritizing taking care of themselves. I work with anxiety, OCD, trauma processing, and perinatal concerns (pregnancy through postpartum).

I enjoy working with people experiencing difficulty in all elements of life. I look through the lens of family systems which means I incorporate family dynamics and looking at generational patterns to learn more about what is presently impacting the clients ability to function optimally. I specialize in working with families all together to support change longevity. I particularly enjoy working with clients suffering from anxiety, depression, or facing relationship difficulty. I use many methods to help people process their stress and trauma including art, movement, talk, and practicing alternative ways to navigate the world.

I practice from a non-pathologizing perspective and fuse my clients’ context, experiences, core values and goals with a solution-focused lens to encourage my clients to understand unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. I share what I am observing authentically with direct communication and work to help my clients express and integrate new perspectives and emotions in a healthy way in order to reach their goals. I value and integrate aspects of most theoretical modalities, but work mostly from a solution-focused perspective while also emphasizing and exploring emotions.

Hello and welcome! The most important aspect of therapy is the positive relationship between therapist & client that fosters respect, trust & open communication.  It's my intention to create a supportive & collaborative environment where we can work together to find the best way to address your needs in this journey. I encourage change by providing alternative perspectives & creating collaborative plans to help you achieve your goals.  I strive to foster respect for each client & their unique belief & value systems, & I believe that my clients are the experts of their own lives & my role as a therapist is a gentle guide.

Jitani is a Marriage and Family Therapist. She graduated from Belmont Abbey College, where she received a bachelor’s degree in applied psychology, and went on to obtain a graduate degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Capella University. Her philosophy is built on the notion that everything is connected to everything and that it is essential to explore how one’s family, co-workers, and friends, impact an individual’s mental health and vice versa.

Life isn’t always easy. Sometimes, we need a little bit of help to work through some of life’s more challenging problems. Everyone has hurdles to overcome at some point. Whether you or your child struggle with anxiety, depression, or unhelpful behaviors, you should know that there is hope for a better tomorrow. The Salish Sea Collective understands that our clients deserve care encompassing physical, mental, emotional, sexual and spiritual health. These human aspects are intrinsically intertwined and require a holistic approach. Our multidisciplinary team create a cohesive atmosphere where clinicians work together for our clients.

Pull up a bean bag chair, grab your favorite fidget, and let's talk. Maybe you describe your life as "a lot," and struggle to find the spoons to get all your stuff done as well as make meaningful change. Maybe anxiety takes up so much space in your day that it leaves little room for the things you want. Maybe your story includes trauma, and that burden is getting so heavy, it hurts. You want to pursue fulfillment, satisfaction, meaning, and peace in your world. If any of these or other painful places in your heart are true, I would love to get a chance to walk alongside you and find what you're looking for together.

To build trust with my clients, I strive to be authentic, empathetic, and respectful. I recognize that every individual has unique needs and experiences, and I work to tailor my approach to best meet those needs. I believe in the power of a collaborative therapeutic relationship, and I will work with you to create a treatment plan that aligns with your goals and values.

I work with clients who are dealing with depression, anxiety, grief and loss, challenges with self-worth and unhelpful thinking, trauma, PTSD, relationships and feeling stuck. I help clients realize their innate wisdom, achieve their goals - whatever they may be, and find new ways of being in a world that is constantly full of challenges. I also work with parents who are struggling with their roles as parents, dealing with guilt and shame that oftentimes comes with parenting and help to find positive solutions with childrearing.

Do you want to improve communication and understanding, work through past hurts such as infidelity, rebuild trust or increase intimacy? I am committed to helping people connect, heal and build mutually respectful, loving relationships. I work from a relational-experiential perspective which gives each person room to voice their desires and needs while learning to engage in new patterns and ways of being together. I enjoy working with people in any stage of relationship and I am committed to working together to help you reach your goals.

I hold Master's degree in Counseling from Seattle University. I work with clients on relationship issues, co-dependency, separation, divorce and co-parenting, anxiety and depression, grief and loss, sexual trauma and major life transitions. It is my belief that the ultimate human need is connection and meaningful relationships. My desire is to help clients clarify feelings, improve communication, and strengthen and deepen connections.
