Counseling Assessments and Services for Sammamish Residents

No-Fee, 30-Minute Assessments

It is a time of unprecedented stress and upheaval for many youth and families who live in Sammamish, Washington. Your team at CrossPath Counseling and the City of Sammamish have teamed up to provide services exclusively for you. In 2021, the City of Sammamish voted to provide special funding to CrossPath Counseling to support a full-time, masters-level counselor at our office.
If you are a Sammamish resident, you may schedule a free, 30-minute, confidential assessment with the counselor. The counselor will evaluate your needs or your family's needs, then connect you with services at our office or another counseling group in the community, whichever is the best fit for your needs.

Low and No-Cost Counseling Available

You may be eligible for low or no-cost counseling services if you are a Sammamish resident who needs counseling services but cannot afford or find services with other providers. A City of Sammamish grant covers the fees for a 30-minute confidential assessment and counseling sessions with our grant-funded therapist Jami Sweeney, LMHCA. You must complete a confidential 30-minute evaluation to be considered for counseling services.
