Hi! I’m Kylar (she/they) and I’m excited you’re here.
I’m a mental health therapist who is passionate about helping others navigate their personal journey. I strongly believe that we are impacted by our life circumstances and the people and systems that surround us. I also know from my own experience that it can take time to find your path, move forward, and grow into a more authentic version of yourself. I also know it’s helpful to have someone walk beside you during more challenging life experiences. Therapists have been an important part of my healing and growth. My personal experience with therapy is why I changed careers later in life and transitioned from a middle school teacher to a marriage and family therapist.
If you’re looking for a therapist who is a little bit different and non-traditional, you found them.
I see clients via telehealth (Oregon & Washington) or in person at my office in Ellensburg, WA or hybrid from my Portland, OR office. To be seen hybrid in my Portland office you must be able to do therapy via telehealth in addition to sessions in person in Portland. * I am currently full for hybrid visits in Portland, but can offer telehealth only. You will be offered a hybrid spot when one becomes available.
As for the Legal details:
My name is Mistalyn “Kylar” Batten, MA, MAT and I’m a Marriage & Family Therapist Associate. I see clients in Oregon (limited hybrid or telehealth only) and Washington (Ellensburg office or telehealth). I work under the Supervision of Lynn Fontana, Phd, LMFT (# T0209)
