Meet Our Providers
Antoinette Watson
DNP, APRN, AG-ACNP-BC, PMHNP-BC
I am a graduate of Winston-Salem State University, Vanderbilt University, and the University of Miami. I am an Acute Care trained as well as a Doctoral prepared Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner in the Tampa Bay area. My goal is to establish a practice where patients are able to have timely access to medication management and counseling services in an effort to help them persevere with ease. I make my best effort to find the potential in each patient and formulate a treatment plan that is individualized to their needs. While the traditional outpatient setting is better for some patients, I also understand this is not an option for all patients due to various reasons. By incorporating the use of technology, I am able to provide personalized, convenient services to patients while they remain in the comfort of their own home. A Little H.O.P.E goes a long way, and I am here to provide that for you.
