Seattle Therapy and Testing | Anxiety, Trauma, and ADHD
Evidence-Based Online Therapy for Anxiety, Trauma & Neurodivergence in Seattle and Across Washington
Online therapy for anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationships, plus ADHD and autism testing. Columbia-trained psychologist serving Seattle with secure online care across all of Washington.
Dr. Jennifer Im is a licensed clinical psychologist, holistic health practitioner, and neurodiagnostic assessment specialist who brings elite, Columbia-level clinical training to clients across Washington State through specialized online therapy. After earning her PhD in Psychology from Columbia University on a full doctoral scholarship, she completed rigorous clinical training, advanced fellowships, and residency rotations within premier metropolitan medical systems, including New York-Presbyterian Hospital, Mount Sinai Hospital, Stony Brook University, and Columbia University Medical Center. Her advanced depth-psychology studies at the Columbia University Center for Psychoanalytic Training and Research deepened her expertise in complex trauma, chronic anxiety, and neurodivergent-affirming care for ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
Her virtual practice is built for founders, professionals, parents, and students drawn to Washington's technology-driven economy. Behind significant professional success, you may be privately carrying anxiety, burnout, or the quiet exhaustion of a lifetime of masking and compensating. You want more than a place to talk; you want a rigorous clinician who understands how your mind works and helps you build measurable, lasting change.
As a first-generation immigrant and neurodivergent-affirming clinician, Dr. Im understands the pressures of expectation, achievement, and identity, and she has particular depth with the high-masking adult ADHD and autism profiles common in Washington's analytical workforce. Whether you are in Seattle's Capitol Hill or Queen Anne or building a life and career in the city, her care is affirming, culturally attuned, and built around the individual.
To create lasting change, Dr. Im bridges advanced clinical science and body-centered wellness. She is EMDR-certified for trauma resolution and trained across more than nine evidence-based modalities, including CBT and DBT. Because trauma and anxiety live in the autonomic nervous system, she integrates somatic tracking and mindfulness into her virtual work, holding teacher certifications in both mindfulness meditation and yoga, for healing through deep physiological integration. Available through secure, HIPAA-compliant online sessions in Seattle and across Washington.

ADHD, autism & neuropsychological evaluations
For Washington clients, a comprehensive evaluation is a deep clinical investigation, not a quick checklist or brief screening, and it is conducted entirely online. These evaluations map neurodivergent profiles across the lifespan, with particular depth in late-identified adult ADHD, autism (ASD), and the high-masking professionals and students throughout the Puget Sound region who need formal documentation for accommodations. Standardized, validated instruments are administered through a secure portal, producing board-compliant reports suitable for workplace accommodations, school IEP and 504 plans, and exam accommodations on the MCAT, LSAT, GRE, GMAT, SAT, and ACT.
Academic & learning support
Psychoeducational assessments identify specific learning disorders, dyslexia, dysgraphia, and dyscalculia, and produce the documentation needed for IEPs, 504 plans, and standardized testing accommodations on the MCAT, LSAT, GRE, GMAT, SAT, and ACT.
Clinical & diagnostic evaluation
When symptoms overlap, a targeted psychological evaluation differentiates between conditions that mimic one another, such as anxiety, complex trauma (PTSD), mood disorders, and depression, and clarifies the most effective course of treatment.
