New to Seattle, deciding on mental health clinic (looks like it’s going to be cash pay $$$).

Hi Everyone,

I’m new to the Seattle area and am looking for a mental health clinic to establish care with. I’ve tried a few psychiatrists, NPs, and therapists over the past couple of years, but I haven’t found the right fit yet (insurance coverage has never been great) and want to start off on the “right foot” this time.

I’m treating this like an investment (like I do my dentist lol) so I’m open to paying out of pocket if the care is truly excellent as I don’t want to waste my time (again)!

In another sub a few people have reccs for 2 clinics that felt “right”after viewing their websites.

Madrona Clinics and Evidence-Based Treatment (although I can’t tell if I’ll get to see a psychiatrist or if they offer the same stuff a psychiatrist might).

Just wanted to see if there were any last minute tips, advice, or info about these two before deciding.

Much appreciated 💛 and so happy to be in Seattle!
