Anique Jones

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Georgia


I am a doctoral-prepared, board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based, and individualized mental health care. I believe healing begins when people feel truly seen, heard, and respected. My goal is to create a space that feels safe, supportive, and collaborative, where you can explore challenges openly and move toward greater clarity, stability, and confidence at your own pace.

My clinical experience spans a wide range of psychiatric and co-occurring conditions, including mood and anxiety disorders, trauma-related concerns, ADHD, substance use disorders, and personality-related challenges. I take a thoughtful, balanced approach to treatment, integrating psychopharmacology with psychotherapy-informed care, lifestyle optimization, mindfulness, and holistic strategies to support both symptom relief and long-term resilience.

I help by meeting you where you are. I take time to understand your story, your goals, and what truly matters to you. Together, we create a treatment plan that feels realistic, respectful, and aligned with your life. You are never reduced to a diagnosis in my care — you are seen as a whole person with strengths, experiences, and potential.

Therapist

I am an experienced trauma resolution clinician and feel so honored to practice as a therapist. My approach centers around meeting you where you are, understanding what you would like to see shift or experience in a new way, and cultivate a path to your recovery.

I am a spiritually integrated clinician and provide a space for you to access your highest self. I recognize both substance and process addictions as a means of outdated coping. Fostering new ways to cope that honor you and your recovery path is central to my practice. Achieving safety and stability internally through the healing of attachment wounds and increasing internal recognition of worth is a byproduct of this process. Move from surviving to thriving.
