Antoinette Tate, Ph.D., is a licensed clinical psychologist and partner at the Temenos Center. She earned her doctorate in Clinical Psychology from American University in 2010, completed her predoctoral internship at the Center for Family Development, a community mental health center in Lowell, MA, and has been with Temenos since 2011.

Prior to Temenos, Dr. Tate’s clinical training spanned a range of settings, including group therapy and case management at the Renfrew Center, crisis counseling, family counseling, and community outreach with Greenbelt CARES in Maryland, and several years working with at-risk youth in Philadelphia.

Dr. Tate works with teens, college students, adults, and older adults. Her specialties include mood regulation (anxiety and depression), eating disorders and body image, trauma, relationship discord, life transitions, self-understanding, and interpersonal work such as navigating difficult relationships and building healthy boundaries. She has pursued additional training in mindfulness, EFT (tapping) and energy work, pet loss and grief, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and working with older adults and dementia, and is currently completing advanced coursework in working with survivors of narcissistic abuse — all of which she draws on in her work with clients.

Dr. Tate believes that a positive therapeutic experience begins with a strong, empathic relationship. Because of her eclectic background, she works collaboratively with her clients to identify their needs, strengths, and goals, taking a relational, trauma-informed, client-centered approach that draws from cognitive-behavioral, energy-based, and psychodynamic orientations. She brings warmth, humor, validation, perspective-building, and skills-building to help clients move toward greater confidence and self-understanding. Dr. Tate is licensed in NJ and, through PSYPACT, is also authorized to provide telehealth services to clients in other participating states.
