## Quick answer

Seattle residents aged 13 and up can see a Washington-licensed psychiatric nurse practitioner from Progressive Pathways Psychiatry by secure video. Care covers psychiatric evaluation, diagnosis and ongoing medication management for depression, anxiety, ADHD and more. There is no office to visit: every appointment happens from your home or another private space in Washington.

## Care for Seattle residents

Living in Washington's largest city does not make an appointment easy to get, and getting to one can cost an hour in traffic each way. The federal government still designates low-income mental health shortage areas inside the city, covering the University District and the Downtown and International District neighborhoods. A video visit removes the commute entirely: an evaluation can happen from a home office in Ballard or a quiet room in Beacon Hill, and follow-ups take far less of the day.

## Fitting care around a Seattle workday

Psychiatric care only helps if you can keep the appointments. A first
[psychiatric evaluation](https://www.pp-psychiatry.com/psychiatry-practices/psychiatric-evaluation) takes longer than a
follow-up, so it is worth booking at a time when you will not be interrupted. After that, most
check-ins are short enough to fit into a lunch hour, which is often the difference between staying
on a plan and drifting away from it.

## Adult ADHD, without stimulants

Many adults in demanding jobs start to wonder whether lifelong trouble with focus, time and
follow-through is [ADHD](https://www.pp-psychiatry.com/adhd-treatment). That question deserves a careful answer, because anxiety,
depression, poor sleep and burnout can all look similar. In Washington, if ADHD is the diagnosis,
treatment uses non-stimulant options, along with practical strategies that make the workday more
manageable.

## What care looks like

- **Work stress and burnout.** Long hours, constant pressure and the anxiety or low mood that follow, separated out carefully so the treatment fits what is actually going on.
- **ADHD in adults.** Adults who suspect ADHD can be evaluated by video and treated with non-stimulant options. Stimulants are not prescribed in Washington.
- **Depression and anxiety.** Persistent low mood, worry and panic, treated with a clear plan and regular video follow-ups.
- **A second opinion.** Already on medication that is not quite working? A full review of what you take and why is often the most useful first step.
