A mental health clinic in Washington state, offering medication management and psychotherapy for adolescents and adults.
Your Partner in Mental Health
Balanced Behavioral Health, PLLC was founded by Brittany Kesten, a psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner with a passion for providing holistic mental health care. Our mission is to support adolescents and adults in Washington state, focusing on the whole person and utilizing both medication and non-pharmacological interventions. We specialize in helping individuals understand and heal from childhood trauma, including emotional abuse and neglect. Our practice is inclusive, serving the LGBTQ+ community and neurodivergent individuals, among others.

Comprehensive Care
At Balanced Behavioral Health, PLLC, we offer a comprehensive range of services to support your mental health journey. Our approach is holistic, focusing on the whole person rather than just the symptoms. We understand that each individual’s needs are unique, and we tailor our services accordingly.

Medication Management
Medication can play a crucial role in managing mental health issues. However, we believe that medication alone is not sufficient. We use it as an adjunct to our non-pharmacological interventions, ensuring that it complements and enhances the other therapeutic strategies we employ.

Psychotherapy
Psychotherapy forms the backbone of our practice. We use person-centered therapy and draw from various modalities, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and parts work/Internal Family Systems (IFS). This flexible approach allows us to adapt to our clients’ needs and preferences, providing them with the most effective care possible.
