An integrative psychiatry practice that heals the entire person and treats the mind.
Specializing in personalized treatment of ADHD, Anxiety, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and trauma for a balanced mind, body, and spirit.
Hi, I’m Nicole
I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who is based out of Virginia. I provide holistic and integrative psychiatry approaches when it comes to mental health. I help busy working individuals who struggle with ADHD, Anxiety, Autism, Bipolar Disorders, PTSD, and also children who need Autism Screening and Treatments through accessible and timely appointment offerings. I also provide support to parents, siblings, and other family members to help them understand the ASD Diagnosis and develop communication skills to cultivate stronger family dynamics.
I help adults with depression, anxiety, trauma, Autism, and ADHD to feel confident and clear-minded, improve their memory, develop healthy coping skills, and feel happier and more joyful in their daily lives. I offer personalized support to my patients with holistic treatment plans that go beyond just medication – including psychotherapy, boundary-setting work, nutrition protocols, sleep routines, and life coaching.
As a mother of twin Autistic sons, I also specialize in evaluating and diagnosing children with autism through accessible and timely appointments. I provide continued support and counseling to parents, siblings, and other family members to help them better understand the diagnosis and develop communication skills to cultivate stronger family dynamics. I am also a published author of a children’s book, Autism is a Superpower!”
It is fascinating to see what the mind is able to experience, recover, and bounce back from. I believe in the complete healing of the person to experience their highest and best version of themselves

My Areas of Focus
ADHD
Are you frustrated with not being able to remember tasks, deadlines, or complete projects in your career and personal life on time?
Are you a busy working professional who knows you are capable of more and your best, but aren’t quite seeming to meet that expectation?
I provide ADHD evaluations and holistic treatment plans to help improve your focus.
Are you easily irritable or sad most of the time, without any apparent reason ?
Do you always seem to be on edge? Or find it hard to be around or interact with others?
I can help quiet the negative internal dialogue, reframe your thought patterns, and get you on the road to internal peace.
Do you often have nightmares or flashbacks of something that happened to you years ago?
Are you tired of feeling inadequate and fearful to go out in public or be around others?
As a domestic abuse survivor, I have a special interest in working with this population to reclaim your independence and confidence. I can help you to process and face your trauma, and help you pave your life path forward.
Are you a mom or dad who feels like your child may not be meeting certain milestones or may possibly be delayed?
Have you tried seeking help in the past that only prescribed medication? Are you currently sitting on a months-long waiting list to be evaluated?
I make access to screening, diagnosing, and treating Autism accessible for everyone. As someone who has been through this process as a parent, I understand the barriers faced (even as a healthcare provider) when seeking help and resources for my twin autistic sons.
I can offer timely evaluations and diagnosis, as well as a holistic approach to care that focuses on nutrition, lifestyle routine coaching, and medication (if applicable).
If any of these are you or you may feel this way, you are in the right place. At Powerful Minds Psychiatry I specialize and will help you with these issues and concerns. I offer many treatment modalities.

I was listened to and heard! Nicole's bedside manner and knowledge is unmatched. I would recommend her to anyone wanting true change and improvement in their mental health and life!

Nicole was absolutely wonderful. She prayed with me over the zoom call and even my obnoxious son calmed down and closed his eyes. I can not thank her enough. She truly cares about her patients and seeing them get better. She broke things down to a 5th grade level and even my husband said "wow shes good". She gave us the hows and whys and a timeframe we could expect improvement. It was even sooner than what she said. Thank you so much Nicole!
