Charissa Walson, alleged founder of Karis Collective, entered into my men's therapy group by…read moreinvitation from Walson's reported friend and CSAT Supervisor Heidi Kinsella, President and Clinical Director of Fourth Dimension Counseling & Coaching in Issaquah, WA. My partner and I do not live in any state where Walson holds a license. Practicing with us constitutes unauthorized practice. Walson used the group to offer free couples counseling -- documented in Zoom chat -- without proper informed consent or a release of information. She then solicited a separate one-on-one session with me, framed as helping me better understand my partner's experiences, which she instead used to disclose details about her own divorce before billing for the session under Charissa Walson PLLC. When we raised concerns with Kinsella, she claimed Walson had appeared on the Fourth Dimension team page but had never actually worked for her -- a contradiction that delayed Walson's removal from the group long enough for Walson to complete her CSAT credential, which she announced via group text in December 2024. Walson did not respond to my November 2025 records request, in violation of HIPAA and Washington state law. Instead, she text messaged both me and my partner -- who had made clear she wanted no contact from Walson -- to ask that we stop leaving reviews, and to deny that either of us had ever been her patients or that any records exist. I have records. These include Charissa Walson PLLC portal emails confirming both appointments. Portal access was revoked following the records request. Two weeks after Walson texted my men's group to announce completion of her CSAT training, the one-on-one session charge was refunded on December 16, 2024 -- without any contact from either my partner or me -- the same day a written complaint about Walson's conduct was delivered to Kinsella.

I have received a "we will get back to you when there is an opening email" There website says they offer in-person and virtual services. If your looking for in-person I don't think this is the right place. Update: I have received a call from 253 Therapy concerning my complaint and was told that they have tried to reach out to me (email only) to try to schedule in-person sessions. I did look back on the dates they said and it was there. I wish a phone call or text message would have taken place but never the less they did respond with politeness and we are moving forward.

I can't say enough good things about Tanya. When I met with her, it was at the darkest part of my…read moreentire life. I was lost and failing miserably at adulting. She never once judged me or made me feel like a lesser person. Instead she listened. She cared. She helped me find solutions and encouraged me. She completely helped turn my life around, and to this day I am truly grateful because I became the person I always wanted to be because of her. Tanya has a talent for understanding people individually and she has the gift of empathy. That is so hard to find in counselors! She's not just a therapist. She's an ally. I guarantee if you put your trust in her you will get amazing results in your journey forward.
