Dr. Hawes is the rare clinician who combines expert and evidence-based care with a keen appreciation for the humanistic and patient-centered facets of care. In addition to being well-versed in treatment of depression and anxiety, she has advanced skills in treating patients coping with injury/illness, adjustment to life transitions, health care provider work efficiency/ stress/burnout, managing uncertainty, and grief/existential issues. As a female provider of color, she is especially attuned to the needs of clients from underrepresented and diverse backgrounds whose mental health concerns are often compounded by a multitude of complex psychosocial and relational stressors. I would refer clients to Dr. Hawes' care with great confidence that they will be in skilled and compassionate hands.

Dr. Hawes is one of the most thoughtful and insightful clinical psychologists I have had the pleasure of working with. In addition to being highly technically skilled in evidence-based clinical practice, Dr. Hawes is very sensitive to her clients’ needs and tailors her approach to meet people wherever they are at. Dr. Hawes is one of the colleagues I turn to first to learn about the latest developments in clinical practice in Washington State and how to best advocate for our clients and the communities we serve.
