What should I look for when choosing a marriage therapist in Washington?

Start with licensure: make sure they're actually licensed in Washington. Then check whether they treat what you're dealing with, whether that's communication problems, anxiety, or something more specific. After that, look at insurance and cost, and decide if you want online sessions or in-person.

Does Marriage.com work with therapists outside my state, or only local ones?

Search the directory for Washington and filter by specialty, insurance, and session format, online or in-person. Each profile shows the therapist's license status, areas of focus, and accepted insurance, so you can compare before reaching out.

Yes. Licensed marriage therapists are bound by confidentiality laws and professional ethics codes, with limited exceptions required by law, such as risk of harm to yourself or others. It's worth asking your therapist about their specific confidentiality policy during your first session.
