Where healing goes deeper than a diagnosis.
Founded by Monét Ince-Amara, PMHNP, a psychiatric nurse practitioner with a background as a Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE), Mendem was built with a deep understanding of how trauma shapes the mind, body, and spirit. Our care is gentle, personalized, and rooted in both clinical expertise and compassion.
We offer trauma-informed psychiatry that integrates lifestyle medicine, functional testing, and holistic approaches to support your full recovery. From nutrition and sleep to movement, supplementation, and safe medication management, we partner with you to rebuild health—on your terms.
Whether you’re seeking a new diagnosis, support to taper medications, or just want to feel like yourself again, you’re welcome here.
Mone't Ince-Amara, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to enhancing the well-being of individuals facing mental health challenges. Specializing in trauma-informed care, I take an integrative and functional approach to treating conditions such as depression, anxiety, and disordered eating. I earned my Master’s in Nursing from Walden University in 2019 and am licensed to practice in Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia.
With over a decade of experience as a registered nurse, I have specialized in Sexual Assault Nurse Examination (SANE) and worked in various hospital settings, gaining deep insight into trauma care and emergency services. My commitment to mental health extends beyond clinical practice—I have volunteered as a crisis counselor for survivors of domestic violence, sexual trauma, human trafficking, strangulation, and child abuse. I am passionate about transforming mental health care by providing compassionate, evidence-based support to those in need.
