ABOUT US
Helping you prioritize your mental health
We get it. Sometimes life can get busy and you can end up being the last person on your to-do list. Let us help you make your mental health a priority in your life. At Elocin Psychiatric Services, Dr. Nicole Washington provides confidential services at optimal times to meet the needs of the busy professional. While the majority of the visits occur via a HIPAA compliant portal, there is an option for office visits. We consider it a privilege to provide your mental health care.
We are here to help
Whether you are in need of pharmacological management, psychotherapy, or a combination, we can help you deal with any untreated mental health disorders all in efforts to improve your overall functioning and quality of life. At Elocin Psychiatric Services, we also provide brief therapies for those in need of services related to brief life or occupational stressors. This can be a physician dealing with a bad outcome or malpractice case, a C-suite executive dealing with a budget crisis, or an attorney dealing with a difficult trial.
ABOUT
Dr. Nicole Washington
Dr. Nicole Washington is the founder and Chief Medical Officer at Elocin Psych. A highly respected physician in her field, Dr. Nicole Bernard Washington is a board-certified psychiatrist, speak, author, & consultant. She has always had an affinity towards working with populations who aren’t typically consumers of mental health services. Dr. Washington‘s clinical focus includes high level professionals and women‘s mental health.
While completing the MPH, she became interested in physician mental health and was stunned at the data surrounding physician mental health and physician suicide. Further research also indicated that physicians weren’t the only professionals dealing with untreated mental health issues, largely due to stigma surrounding mental illness.
