Doria McGahey
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
My path to becoming a mental health counselor is deeply personal. After experiencing trauma in 2010, counseling became a turning point in my life. It not only helped me heal but also gave me the confidence to return to school and pursue an entirely new career. Looking back, I feel tremendous gratitude for the growth I experienced and for the people who supported me along the way. That experience shaped the counselor I am today.
Since becoming a mental health counselor in 2019, I have been passionate about helping people navigate life's challenges with compassion, curiosity, and hope. I believe that healing is possible, even when life feels overwhelming, and that therapy can be a place where meaningful change begins.
My early professional experience includes volunteering with hospice, supporting individuals living with brain injuries and dementia, working with people facing chronic and terminal illnesses during my internship, and providing care through EvergreenHealth's In Home Mental Health program. These experiences have strengthened my appreciation for the resilience of the human spirit and deepened my commitment to helping people grow, adapt, grieve, heal, and find acceptance when life presents difficult realities.
I strive to create a safe, collaborative, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and understood. Whether you're working through trauma, coping with illness, navigating life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, my goal is to meet you where you are and support you in creating a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling.
Outside of my work as a therapist, I'm a self-proclaimed plant nerd. I hold a bachelor's degree in Herbal Medicine, and my love of plants reflects my appreciation for growth, resilience, and the healing that can happen over time—both in nature and in ourselves.

Brittany Rine
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Welcome! I am thrilled that you are here and are considering getting the help that you need. I’m Brittany, Licensed Mental Health Counseling Associate. I received my MA in Clinical Mental Health from Northwest University in Kirkland, Washington. The bulk of my clinical experience has been with women and children who have experienced various types of trauma. Now having transitioned into private practice, I work primarily with individuals who want to see improvements in regards to their self-esteem.
You can find comfort in the fact that I have identified the work that is required of us to create a different reality for you from a personal and professional level. In this reality, you consider your feelings and needs, you have stopped the people pleasing, and you have the confidence that is required to achieve your dreams. Everyone’s journey through these struggles looks different, so ours won’t look the same, but we both have fought and are fighting the same battle.
As you already know, the fight isn’t an easy one. There will be work required from the both of us. I have nothing but the utmost confidence in you that you can and will win this battle, and when you do you’ll see the strength that has always been inside of you.

Elza Boycheva
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MS, LMHC
Do you worry, overthink, feel anxious, have panic attacks, PTSD, or avoid certain situations because of anxiety/trauma? Your thoughts may be racing, spiraling, or making you feel like you’re experiencing painful situations all over again. You may be left feeling overwhelmed, terrified, out of control, and not knowing how to cope. You may avoid people, isolate yourself, find it hard to trust or connect with others, worry about others judging you, or become stuck in unhealthy relationship patterns. At times, it can feel hard to function.

Dr. Amy Karbasi
Psychologist, PsyD
Living with chronic pain or illness can affect far more than your physical health—it can change your identity, your relationships, your sense of safety, and your hopes for the future. With a strong medical background and years of training and experience treating chronic pain and chronic illness, I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space for making sense of these experiences and finding actionable ways to move forward. My approach is collaborative and individualized, combining evidence-based psychological treatment with an understanding of the complex relationship between the brain, body, nervous system, emotions, behavior, and symptoms. Whether you are struggling with chronic pain, symptoms that persist despite medical treatment, illness-related anxiety, medical trauma, PTSD, sleep problems, or trying to adjust to a life that has changed, therapy can help you feel more capable, hopeful, and empowered to build the life you want.
