Welcome to Vital Changes
Caring that Creates Change
Retired
I am unable to take new clients due to my retirement at the end of 2022. I can provide a follow up video or phone session with any past clients. I appreciate the many wonderful connections with clients over the past 18 years.
Therapist Education and Training
My education as a therapist includes earning the Doctor of Philosophy and Master of Education degrees at the University of Washington in Counseling and Educational Psychology. I am also a certified hypnotherapist with the Wellness Institute and currently I am in Advanced Hypnotherapist Training. My education in spirituality includes studies at Princeton and Fuller Theological Seminaries, and work as a church pastor.
Therapist Licenses
I am a Licensed Psychologist in Washington State, Hypnotherapist certified by the Wellness Institute, and a Child Mental Health Specialist. I am also a member of the American Psychological Association.
Payments and Insurance Billing
Your payment for my services will depend on my services and your insurance coverage. I accept self pay as well as insurance billing. My fees are listed on my Disclosure Form. My office bills your insurance company for most services. I am pleased to be an in-network provider with Aetna, Premera Blue Cross, Regence Blue Shield, Cigna, Uniform Medical Plan, and Tricare. You can contact me to help determine your insurance benefits at drmcfarlane@vitalchanges.org.
