Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Hyattsville, MD

Malcolm is a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with dual board certification in Family Practice. I am a native New Yorker with over 20 years of healthcare experience. Growing up in New York City, I’m comfortable working with diverse populations. I’ve served clients from various religious, socioeconomic, cultural and sexual orientation backgrounds.

My name is Nene Barry. I am a Psychiatric–Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) certified by both ANCC and AANP, having completed my program at Wilkes University in August 2025. I also hold an MSN as a Family Nurse Practitioner from the Catholic University of America, where I graduated in May 2017. I am an experienced clinician with a strong background in primary care, behavioral health, holistic assessment, patient-centered treatment planning, and interdisciplinary collaboration.

I am a compassionate and dedicated Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over two decades of experience across a wide range of therapeutic settings, including family, adolescent, individual, group, adult, outpatient, residential, and day programs. I help clients enhance their quality of life by using evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.

I have extensive experience providing care in community, correctional, and integrated care settings, where I work with individuals managing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma-related conditions, and other mental health concerns.

I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and respected. I value thoughtful assessment, clear communication, and collaborative decision-making to help clients better understand their symptoms and treatment options. My goal is to partner with each client to develop a personalized care plan that supports both mental and overall well-being.

Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, ADHD, depression, or family challenges start to take over. You may find yourself stuck in unhelpful patterns or unsure how to move forward. Therapy offers a space to slow down, sort through what’s happening, and discover practical tools for lasting change. Together, we’ll focus on building emotional resilience, improving relationships, and helping you feel more confident and in control of your life.

I am a client-focused, compassionate, and experienced Therapist who is dedicated to helping clients determine their best courses of actions for improved living.
