Hi, my name is Jody and I would like to welcome you to Headway. As a therapist with many years of experience helping clients to navigate their unique journey I would like to make this process comfortable for you. Whether you are seeking support for a life transition, working through a past experience, or just want to better understand yourself, I will meet you where you are in your process.
I am committed to providing an inclusive and affirming environment for all clients. I welcome and support individuals regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, race, religion or back round.
When I am not working I enjoy being out in nature, animals of all kinds, reading and crafting.
I believe that meaningful change happens through connection, trust, and collaboration. As a therapist, I see us as partners in the therapeutic process—working together to better understand your experiences, build on your strengths, and create lasting change. I am deeply committed to providing culturally responsive care that honors each person's unique story, values, and identity. I truly love the work of psychotherapy and consider it a privilege to walk alongside my clients as they heal, grow, and move toward the life they want to live.
My background is in all aspects of mental health and substance abuse.
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'm a psychiatric nurse practitioner in Maryland with a background in both medication management and therapy — and I believe the best care happens when we tailor it to you. I specialize in anxiety, ADHD, and depression, and I work with patients who want a provider who actually listens before deciding anything. Many of the people I see found me through their community — they wanted someone they could trust, who'd take the time to get to know them. My approach is warm and direct: I'll tell you exactly what I'm thinking and make sure every session reflects where you are right now.
