Dr. Abong Miyeh

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Washington, DC


I am a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) and Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with extensive experience providing mental health care across inpatient, outpatient, community mental health, ACT teams, and substance use treatment settings. Since beginning my mental health career, I have been dedicated to supporting individuals through complex emotional and psychiatric challenges with compassion, respect, and a trauma-informed approach.

I specialize in treating adults experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma-related concerns, ADHD, bipolar disorder, mood disorders, emotional regulation difficulties, and substance use concerns. I have experience working with individuals from diverse backgrounds, including those navigating life transitions, chronic mental health challenges, and recovery journeys.

My approach is collaborative and individualized. I believe effective treatment begins with understanding each person’s story, strengths, and goals. I combine evidence-based medication management with supportive therapeutic techniques to help clients gain insight, build resilience, and improve overall well-being.

My goal is to create a safe and nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, empowered, and supported as they work toward healing and meaningful change.
