I am Dr. LaTaya T. Whitaker, DNP, PMHNP‐BC, FNP‐BC, a dual‐certified Nurse Practitioner with more than twenty years of experience in primary care, urgent care, occupational health, and psychiatric mental health. My practice is grounded in whole‐person, evidence‐based care that supports both physical and emotional wellbeing. Over the years, I’ve worked in federal agency clinics, community health settings, and academic nursing programs, where I’ve had the privilege of teaching and mentoring students at the undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral levels. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, trauma‐related concerns, mood disorders, and life transitions. I am deeply committed to providing accessible, equitable mental health care and helping individuals move toward stability, clarity, and long‐term wellness.

I am committed to providing high-quality service and clear communication. I value honesty, professionalism, and respect. My goal is to understand your needs and work with you to achieve the best possible outcome. I believe successful results come from collaboration, trust, and consistent effort from both of us.

For more than twenty years, I have had the privilege of walking alongside adolescents, adults, and couples during some of the most difficult and meaningful seasons of their lives. I believe that sometimes it can be difficult to see beyond the darkness in front of us. My role is to listen without judgement while helping you find your way toward the light again.

I have extensive experience working with complex trauma, attachment issues, family, and spiritually and religiously-based trauma.

Hi! I'm Hailey! I work with people who are overwhelmed by daily life, relationships, and academic work. I have worked extensively with people who are feeling burnt out, overwhelmed, and unmotivated. I have experience working with Moms who are pregnant or postpartum and are having a hard time balancing life's demands. Together, we will practice skill-building in our sessions to help you feel comfortable while working to reach your goals. We can build routines, establish academic strategies, navigate relationships and difficult conversations, while learning and practicing coping skills. Therapy can be hard; together we can create a life you want to live and enjoy. My job is to empower you to discover your own strength and reach your goals!
