Dual-certified psychiatric and family nurse practitioner · Founder, Awesome Experience Psychiatric Services
Dr. Takha holds dual board certification in psychiatric-mental health nursing and family practice nursing, so a depression evaluation with her considers both what is happening in your mind and what may be happening in your body. She earned her Doctor of Nursing Practice from UMass Global in 2019 and has spent five years treating mood disorders across Southern Maryland and the DC metro area.
Depression care at Awesome Experience starts with a full psychiatric evaluation, not a prescription pad. Medication is one tool among several, prescribed only when it fits your history, your goals, and your body.
In Her Words
We assess, diagnose, and treat mental health conditions with a holistic approach. I look at the whole person, not just a diagnosis, including physical, emotional, social, and spiritual health, to determine the right course of treatment for you.
Dr. Siyami Takha, Founder
