What our clients say about their experience.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“My emergency C-section left me with nightmares and panic attacks. I couldn't talk about the birth without shaking. Therapy helped me process the trauma and reclaim my story. I'm pregnant again now, and I actually feel ready.”
— expecting mom of 1
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“I had intrusive thoughts that terrified me. I was too ashamed to tell anyone, even my partner. My therapist explained postpartum OCD and helped me understand I wasn't dangerous. The intrusive thoughts are 90% gone now. I wish I'd reached out sooner.”
— mom of 2
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“After three failed IVF rounds, I was told to 'just stay positive.' My therapist was the first person who acknowledged the grief, the anger, and the exhaustion — and helped me process what I'd been through. I finally felt seen.”
— hopeful mom

Mental health parity in Washington
Washington has strong state mental health parity protections. The Washington State Mental Health Parity Act requires that all state-regulated plans cover mental health and substance use disorder services at the same level as medical and surgical services — same deductibles, same copays, no more restrictive prior authorization, no visit limits that don't apply equally to medical care. Washington also has a robust appeals process: insurers must respond to appeals within specific timeframes, and the state Insurance Commissioner's Office actively enforces parity. File complaints online at insurance.wa.gov.

Common questions
- Yes. Phoenix Health provides telehealth therapy to residents of Washington. Sessions are conducted via secure video from your home, office, or anywhere private — no commute required. All Phoenix Health therapists are licensed and authorized to practice in Washington.
- PMH-C (Perinatal Mental Health Certification) is awarded by Postpartum Support International (PSI) to clinicians who have completed advanced training in perinatal mental health — covering postpartum depression, anxiety, OCD, birth trauma, and related conditions. It represents the gold standard of specialization in this field.
- If you're struggling — with your mood, your thoughts, your relationship, or just how you're coping — that's enough of a reason to talk to someone. You don't need a diagnosis. A free consultation is a low-commitment first step.
