About Dr. Tillery

Dr. Shannon Tillery

I am a psychiatrist based in Seattle, WA, offering integrated mental health care for adults that thoughtfully combines medication management and psychotherapy. Before entering the medical field, my background encompassed extensive work in dance, fashion, and the service industry, paired with time spent living across the United States and internationally.

These diverse life experiences deeply shape my humanistic approach to psychiatry, allowing me to cultivate an atmosphere of warmth, empathy, and trust where you can share your experiences without fear of judgment. Recognizing that many people have had difficult experiences with therapy or psychiatric care in the past, my priority is to walk alongside each patient to build a truly positive, collaborative therapeutic experience.

I treat a broad range of mental health concerns in adults as well as the life stresses that accompany them. I welcome patients from all walks of life, with special interest in supporting healthcare professionals, dancers and performing artists, and college and graduate students.
