“DNP Manuel is the care provider I’ve always been searching for. He’s second to none, and I’m so grateful I found him. If you’re looking for someone who takes your concerns seriously, and attentively listens to what you have to say, you’re in luck! DNP Manuel treats his patients like family. He is reliably attentive, caring, encouraging, and a ray of sunshine when you need it the most. I’ve never had a care provider who will reach out to me to check-in on how my medications are working as often as he does. That’s really helped put my mind at ease. DNP Manuel takes the extra time and effort to make sure his patients know that they truly valued and respected. He has a heart of gold, and genuinely cares about your wellness journey. If I could give him 10 stars, I would.”

“As a gay patient, I’ve often felt anxious and uncomfortable going to doctor’s appointments. There’s always that fear of being judged, misunderstood, or not fully seen. With Dr. Selman Manuel, APRN, I experienced the complete opposite.
From the moment I walked in, I felt respected and safe. He treated me with genuine kindness and professionalism, and I never once felt awkward or dismissed. He listened carefully, validated my concerns, and made me feel valued as a human being, not just a chart or diagnosis.
What stood out most was how much he truly cared. He involved me in my treatment plan, explained everything clearly, and made sure my voice mattered. I left feeling empowered, supported, and understood.
If you’re part of the LGBTQ+ community or have ever felt hesitant about seeking care, I highly recommend Dr. Manuel. He creates an affirming, welcoming space where you are respected, heard, and truly cared for.”

Getting to know Dr. Selman Manuel
Dr. Selman Manuel, DNP, APRN, PMHNP‑BC, FNP‑C, is a board‑certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing comprehensive psychiatric evaluation and medication management in Tukwila, Washington. He serves patients throughout Seattle, Southcenter, Renton, Kent, Bellevue, and surrounding King County communities through in‑person and telepsychiatry appointments.
Dr. Manuel specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of ADHD, anxiety disorders, depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder, insomnia, mood disorders, panic disorder, OCD, and trauma‑related conditions. He provides evidence‑based psychiatric medication management for adolescents and adults, using a patient‑centered, collaborative care model focused on safety, measurable outcomes, and long‑term stability.
At OnPoint Integrated Health & Advanced Psychiatry, patients receive comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, personalized treatment planning, medication management, and supportive psychotherapy. Dr. Manuel is known for thorough diagnostic assessments, clear treatment education, and responsive follow‑up care. His approach integrates clinical precision with compassionate listening to ensure patients feel heard, understood, and actively involved in their treatment decisions.
Dr. Manuel holds doctoral training (DNP) and dual advanced practice certifications. His clinical background includes primary care and mental health, allowing him to understand the medical and psychiatric factors that influence overall wellness. He prioritizes careful medication selection, monitoring, and evidence‑based practice standards consistent with Washington State and national psychiatric guidelines.
Patients choose Dr. Manuel for professional, structured, and goal‑oriented psychiatric care delivered in a respectful and confidential environment. He welcomes new patients seeking ADHD treatment, anxiety and depression management, trauma‑informed care, and comprehensive psychiatric evaluations in the greater Seattle area.
What should a new client know about working with you?
When working with me, you can expect structured, evidence‑based psychiatric care in a compassionate, gender‑affirming, LGBTQIA+ inclusive environment. I provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluation and medication management for ADHD, depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, PTSD, trauma‑related conditions, and co‑occurring substance use disorders. My practice serves adolescents and adults seeking professional, goal‑oriented mental health treatment.
I specialize in ADHD diagnosis and treatment, including evaluation for inattentive, hyperactive‑impulsive, and combined presentations. If you are struggling with focus, executive dysfunction, procrastination, emotional dysregulation, or academic or workplace performance challenges, we will conduct a thorough ADHD assessment and discuss appropriate treatment options. ADHD treatment may include stimulant medications, non‑stimulant alternatives, and structured symptom monitoring to ensure safety and measurable improvement.
I also provide Medication‑Assisted Treatment (MAT) for opioid use disorder and alcohol use disorder. As a MAT provider, I offer Suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone), buprenorphine monotherapy when clinically appropriate, naltrexone, and Vivitrol injections. Treatment includes harm‑reduction strategies, relapse prevention planning, and integrated care for dual‑diagnosis patients with co‑occurring depression, anxiety, PTSD, or bipolar disorder. Substance use disorders are medical conditions — not moral failings — and are treated with evidence‑based, stigma‑free care.
My approach is holistic and collaborative. We will review your history, symptoms, medical factors, lifestyle stressors, and personal goals to develop a personalized treatment plan. I incorporate clear communication, shared decision‑making, and ongoing follow‑up visits to monitor medication effectiveness, side effects, and progress toward stability.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
A typical process when working with me includes:
Initial Evaluation:
A comprehensive psychiatric and medical assessment
Review of mental health history, substance use history, medical conditions, and current medications
Discussion of symptoms, stressors, lifestyle factors, and personal treatment goals
Diagnostic clarification using evidence-based criteria
Development of an individualized treatment plan
Treatment Planning:
Clear explanation of diagnosis and available treatment options
Discussion of medication choices, benefits, risks, and alternatives
Shared decision-making to determine the best approach for you
For substance use disorders: evaluation for medication treatment such as Suboxone (buprenorphine), naltrexone, or Vivitrol, along with harm-reduction planning
Ongoing Sessions:
Medication management and symptom monitoring
Supportive, solution-focused therapeutic interventions
Relapse prevention strategies (when applicable)
Adjustment of medications based on response and side effects
Coordination of care with therapists or other providers when needed
While my primary focus is psychiatric evaluation and medication management, I incorporate brief therapeutic techniques, psychoeducation, and coping strategies into each session. I also encourage therapy referrals when longer-term psychotherapy would be beneficial.
My goal is to provide structured, evidence-based care while maintaining a supportive and collaborative partnership throughout your treatment journey.

Dr. Sean was very friendly and made me feel much more comfortable throughout the entire experience. Since I’d never seen a psychiatrist or therapist before, I was a little nervous, but he made me feel like I was talking to a friend. He listened without judgment and helped me with exactly what I needed. I would definitely recommend him.

I recently had the privilege of being seen by Dr. “Sean” Manuel, and I can confidently say he is the most empathetic provider I have ever had. From the moment I walked into the clinic, he made me feel welcomed, respected, and safe in a truly LGBTQIA+ affirming environment. He listens with intention and compassion, ensuring every visit feels empowering and collaborative. I never feel rushed or judged. In the past, I met psychiatrists who made me feel like just another patient, but with him, I feel genuinely seen and understood. Although he is an ARNP but he is the BEST of the BEST, he is far more than a title—he brings clinical excellence, heart, and strong advocacy for diversity, equality, inclusivity, justice, and education. He follows up on my care and reminds me, he will never give up on me. I leave every appointment confident, and smiling, knowing I am truly valued and cared for. Thank you, Dr. M—you’ve truly changed my life, and I’m so excited for your private practice ahead.

I had an absolutely amazing experience with Dr. Selman Manuel, DNP. I’ve seen many providers over the years, mostly physicians, so I know what a typical appointment feels like. This was completely different — in the best way possible.
He is the only provider I’ve met who truly dedicates a significant amount of time to therapy during the visit. I mean seriously, he doesn’t just touch the surface and move on. He goes deep, asks thoughtful questions, and helps you process things in a way that feels meaningful & productive. It never feels rushed. It feels intentional.
What impressed me even more is how smart he is. He explains things thoroughly, connects the dots clinically, and makes sure you understand the “why” behind every decision. There’s a level of depth and professionalism that really stands out.
He is truly one of a kind. I left my appointment feeling supported, educated, and genuinely cared for. Experiences like this are rare, and I’m incredibly grateful to be under his care.

Exceptional Care Beyond Expectations
The best part of my consultation was meeting Dr. Selman Manuel. He is professional, approachable, and incredibly knowledgeable—truly a walking encyclopedia in medicine. At Clover Hope Mental Health, he was by far the best provider I have seen. As a certified PMHNP, FNP, and CARN-AP, his expertise is matched by genuine compassion and respect for his patients. He took the time to clearly explain my diagnosis and how each medication would affect me, ensuring I felt informed and comfortable with my treatment plan. His bedside manner was attentive and centered entirely on my needs. Whenever concerns came up, he was easily accessible and addressed them promptly. The nursing staff communicated with him quickly and efficiently, which made the entire process smooth. I trust him completely and would recommend him to anyone seeking thoughtful, responsive, and comprehensive mental health care.

He focuses not only on immediate stabilization but also on creating thoughtful, sustainable plans for ongoing recovery and long-term success. His reputation in the community reflects his integrity and dedication, as many patients specifically seek him out for care.

He Actually Cares!!!
Dr. Manuel has never made my wife or me feel rushed during our visits. As family practice patients, we truly appreciate how he takes his time and gives us his full attention. He remembers details from previous appointments and always follows up on past concerns, which makes us feel valued and genuinely cared for. He listens carefully, explains all available options clearly, and works collaboratively with us to choose what best fits our needs and goals.
What stands out most is that he looks at the whole picture of our health—not just the immediate issue. He doesn’t simply write a prescription and move on. Instead, he is thorough in his exams and evaluations to ensure we are receiving the best possible care. On top of that, he’s kind, approachable, and easy to talk to. Scheduling is smooth, wait times are reasonable, the staff is friendly, and we completely trust his decisions. We highly recommend him!

Best Doctor I’ve Ever Had
Dr. Manuel has been my primary care provider for the past 1.5 years. I first met him at Renton Primary Care, and although the clinic unfortunately closed due to financial difficulties, my experience with him has remained extremely positive. From day one, he has shown genuine care, professionalism, and respect. I always feel heard during my appointments, and he takes the time to thoroughly explain my conditions and answer every question I have without making me feel rushed.
Before seeing Dr. Manuel, I had only visited MDs and DOs. Learning that he holds a Doctorate in Nursing Practice completely changed my perspective on nurse practitioners. His depth of knowledge, attention to detail, and compassionate approach truly stand out. Appointment scheduling was smooth, wait times were reasonable, and the staff was always friendly and welcoming.
Most importantly, I trust his decisions and feel confident in the care I receive. Thank you, Dr. Manuel.

Dr. Manuel save my life. I tried to get clean so many times That didn’t work for me I kept relapsing. I tried to get clean on my own tried out a couple detox places then I went to a new inpatient because I needed to get out of the drugs hold on me. He was my doc and he looked at me more then anther low life addict or dollar sign. He listened to me and explained all that was gonna happen and was with me each step. If I had questions he would answer with out being all judgy like most docs are. He was one of the biggest cheerleaders for recovery. And yes we do recover I couldn’t have done it without him.

This experience truly deserves 10 stars. From my first appointment, I felt completely at ease. He is genuine, compassionate, and refreshingly nonjudgmental. It’s rare to find a provider who not only listens but truly hears you, and that’s exactly how I felt throughout my visit.
