Hi, I’m Jenia.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with a Doctor of Nursing Practice from the University of Washington. With years of experience as a nurse supporting individuals through mental health challenges, childbirth, and ketamine-assisted therapy, I understand the profound impact that compassionate, well-informed care can have.

In the midst of an escalating mental health crisis, finding a competent and well-trained provider is essential. You deserve care from someone who not only understands the complexities of psychiatric treatment but will also advocate for your best interests and work alongside you in navigating the system.

As a Third Culture Kid, I recognize the challenges of identity, belonging, and cultural transitions. My background in Neonatal Intensive Care has shaped my approach to supporting bereaved parents, guardians, and individuals experiencing acute trauma. My practice is LGBTQIA+ affirming and rooted in a culture of consent, weight neutrality, feminism, sex positivity, and radical self-acceptance.

Whether you're seeking support for depression, anxiety, PTSD, cPTSD, grief, attachment wounds, or psychedelic integration, I provide a safe, collaborative space for healing. Together, we will build a treatment path that is not only effective but deeply aligned with your needs, values, and long-term well-being.

I’m trained in Ketamine Assisted Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, Motivational Interviewing, and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for adults and those with trauma. I'm currently in the process of attaining Level 1 training in the Hakomi Method (mindfulness-centered somatic psychotherapy).

I prefer to view humans through a human lens rather than through a diagnostic manual. If you think we might be a good fit, I’d love to speak with you and find out more about your mental health goals.

  • Yes! I offer telehealth therapy for clients who reside in Washington State. However, I find that in-person sessions can improve therapy outcomes significantly.

    I also offer sessions in my downtown Seattle office on Wednesday and Thursdays.

  • I do accept Aetna, Cigna and Premera insurance. I am currently not accepting patients with Medicare insurance, even if paying out of pocket.

    I can also provide superbills for out-of-network reimbursement, which you may submit to your insurance provider for potential coverage. Please check with your insurance company to understand your out-of-network benefits to see if they apply when working with me.

  • If you need to cancel or reschedule an appointment, kindly do so by text, via the patient portal, or email at least 48 hours in advance of your scheduled appointment. Any appointments that are rescheduled or cancelled less than 48 hours will be charged the full session rate. If you intend to reschedule your appointment, please be aware that I cannot guarantee another available time within the same time slot or within the same week.

    The only exceptions for late cancellations are for emergencies (i.e., death or birth in the family, an accident) or serious illnesses or injuries of yourself or someone you care for. Work or travel-related conflicts will not be exceptions to this policy. This policy is necessary because a time commitment is made to you and is held exclusively for you. Fees incurred on same day cancellations may be waived in the event of an emergency on a case-by-case basis

  • Currently, I offer harm-reduction preparation and integration therapy.

    I will soon be adding Spravato® to my practice. Additionally, I can provide Cannabis education, and a recommendation for Cannabis use for CAT sessions with one of our providers after a thorough psychiatric evaluation.
