Welcome! My name is Nikki (she/her) and I am a postdoctoral psychology resident who provides individual therapy and psychological testing for adults in Washington state. If you find yourself overwhelmed, overstimulated, and struggling to meet the demands of the rigid systems you navigate every day, I get it and am here to help you find more sustainable ways of managing. If you have had experiences that no one else seems to understand and/or are struggling with the impacts of trauma and loss, I'm here to support you in processing and healing those wounds. I combine coping skills and insight-oriented therapy to help you connect better with yourself and others, heal wounds you may not have realized were impacting you, and to live more freely (you get to decide what that looks like!). I also provide comprehensive psychological testing for concerns related to attention, executive functioning, memory, personality, cognitive and intellectual functioning, and for diagnostic clarification purposes. Testing can provide insights into personal strengths and areas that aren't as strong, differential diagnosis (e.g., why do I have difficulty paying attention?), work or academic accommodations if applicable, recommendations, and more. To learn more, get questions answered, and explore our fit, reach out to schedule a free 15-30 minute consultation. The consultation is nonbinding and meant to be a low-stress opportunity to see if we vibe! It's also the first step in beginning therapy or psychological testing services with me. You can learn more through my practice's website.
My hope for our work together is that you can begin to process and engage the pain that we so often don’t want to make space for. Instead of ignoring or pathologizing whatever has gotten you stuck, we will explore ways to honor and grow from these realities. I often work with clients who are coping with anxiety, grief, trauma, depression, and spiritual questions. I also help clients who are experiencing climate grief and/or have a desire to re/connect with the natural world. My approach is primarily psychodynamic. Somatic, attachment, liberation, and ecopsychology theories also inform my work. Moreover, my approach is always trauma-informed.

You want to feel good and genuinely at ease in your life and relationships, but something is in the way. Trauma, attachment, relationship issues. Chronic loneliness, social anxiety, difficulty with vulnerability and connection. A world that's on fire. These are my specialties. Whatever is in the way for you, we won't talk about relief as some hopeful future state. I'll help you experience it in session, so you can start moving toward a life that feels joyful and free.
I provide medication management and supportive psychotherapy via telehealth using a secure platform. Email if interested in services!
I believe we can all find meaning, joy, and connection despite the obstacles life presents each day. My hope is to build a genuine connection with you so we can work toward the life you want. Together we will develop a treatment plan that integrates your inner wisdom with my expertise in evidence based techniques. I practice Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), a form of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) that incorporates mindfulness, acceptance, values, and behavior change — all in the service of a more fulfilled life.

At Clear Path Psychiatry, we believe that healing takes a team - and no one should walk the healing path alone. We provide compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care with a strong emphasis on collaboration. Our providers work closely with each individual's care team to support lasting well-being through personalized interventional treatment, including Spravato (esketamine), and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS). Rooted in both science and heart, our practice is committed to restoring hope through integrative, forward-thinking care. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions, our team is here to guide you with respect, empathy, and dedication.
I love working with people of all ages, but I especially enjoy working with young people who are moving through significant phases in their life. Transitions like college, leaving home, new careers and developing significant relationships reveal feelings of all types. With these changes come an opportunity to develop deeper self-understanding and a more aligned personal voice. I am rooted in equity and social justice, and clients describe me as an unwavering advocate and equal partner. I believe each of us has our own internal healing path and together we will discover your most authentic journey. Sessions include deep listening, celebrations and a bit of humor.
With a foundation of respect and compassion, I offer a collaborative therapeutic process that helps you create meaningful change. By integrating empathy, insight and evidence-based strategies, I will support you on your journey toward emotional well-being and personal growth. Throughout my career I have had the privilege of supporting individuals through a wide range of challenges. In addition to my work as a therapist, I am also a clinical social worker in a primary care clinic. This role deepens my understanding of the connection between physical and mental health, helping me take a holistic approach to psychotherapy. I have trained in several different types of evidence based modalities. My therapeutic approach integrates these practices, allowing me to tailor treatment to meet the needs of each individual. Here's a bit about two approaches I use: Walk and Talk therapy combines the benefits of traditional talk therapy with the healing power of movement and nature. It has been found to encourage emotional expression, reduce anxiety, ease symptoms of depression and improve overall mood. The Flash technique is a recently developed evidenced-based therapeutic intervention for reducing the disturbance associated with traumatic or other distressing memories. It's a gentle way of healing that doesn't require you to describe traumatic details. Instead, you maintain focus on something positive and engaging. Ultimately, the goal is comprehensive healing using whatever combination of methods works best for you.
