With 26 years of clinical experience as a licensed therapist in DC and Virginia, I support individuals navigating life’s complexities—from stress, trauma, and grief to fertility concerns, family dynamics, LGBTQIA+ experiences, anxiety, depression, and moments of transition.
As a proud Howard University graduate, my work is grounded in cultural humility, social justice, and a belief that mental health is inseparable from history, community, and lived experience. Howard taught me to see clients not just through symptoms, but as whole people shaped by family, identity, policy, and perseverance.
This perspective fuels my commitment to therapy as both a healing space and a form of liberation. My practice is anchored in integrity, guided by compassion, and centered on the dignity and humanity of every person I serve.
Hey, I'm Antoinette — a psychiatric nurse practitioner who believes that healing isn't just about what's happening in your head, but what's happening in your whole body. I specialize in eating disorders, mood disorders, depression, and anxiety, and I bring over seven years of experience in some of the most specialized treatment settings in the country to every session.
I have experience working with clients who have experienced troubled childhood. I work to unpack early experiences and rebuild. I create a safe space for clients to feel comfortable and share their experiences.
Over 20 years of experience in healthcare with 5 years specializing in mental health and addiction/substance use disorders. Dual certified as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner from Florida State University and Family Nurse Practitioner from Walden University, as well as a proud Veteran of the United States Navy.
My focus is to help individuals and families build resiliency to heal, energize, and become aware of their inner strengths. We achieve this by providing a neutral safe space, listening to your concerns, and customizing a treatment plan to connect you with simple strategies that would assist you with achieving your full potential.
