Emma has a place to stay! Yay! We will be helping her move in next week. However, we have another issue that we need help with, so if folks can signal boost this, I'd very much appreciate it

I have seen Dr. Steven Overman at the Seattle Arthritis Clinic and he's very prestigious. I wasn't ready to go on any new medications, so he and I didn't work out, but if someone wants to tackle their issues and is ready to accept pharmacological treatment, he's your guy. He'll do a lot of good thorough testing in advance, which is nice.

Nearby in the Northgate neighborhood is the Community Psychiatric Clinic which has sliding scale fees for people without insurance. They also have a location in Lake City.

I love my psychiatric nurse practitioner, she's in Green Lake, but I don't know if she's accepting new patients. IIRC, she bills my insurance about $100 for my med-management/therapy sessions.

FWIW, I have GAD, almost OCD, bipolar, and ~PTSD~ like symptoms.

A bit of poking around and I found 2 sliding scale places.

I think the second one is a better option; the blurb specifically mentions expertise with anxiety and depression (which, yeah, is not the same as them saying they've expertise in bipolar, but it is at least helpfup), along with PTSD, eating disorders, women's issues, and chemical dependency.
