“I started Counseling Now because I was frustrated with my father’s experience getting treatment for schizophrenia. When he finally found someone that could help, there was a 6 month waiting list and the doctor didn’t accept his insurance. Mental health care should be easy to find and affordable to receive.”

Online Counseling and Psychiatry at Counseling Now

The State of Mental Health in Washington

You deserve to live a safe, happy, and healthy life.

But for many children and adults in Washington, the journey to hope and healing is often blocked by anxiety, depression, family and marital problems, psychiatric disorders, and lack of access to community resources.

We strive to change that here at Counseling Now.

We hope that through our online counseling and psychiatry services in Washington, we can help every child and adult succeed in every aspect of their life.
