Antanet
Roberts
Therapist, behavioral health leader, educator, and community advocate.
Antanet meets you with warmth, honesty, and real momentum, helping individuals and families move from confusion to clarity, and gently back to themselves.
Comfort and direction are not opposites. I offer both, in the same breath.
Rooted in restoration.
I believe people are not broken. They are often carrying a great deal, and they deserve a steady place to set it down. My work is rooted in restoration, helping you reconnect with your strengths, your relationships, and yourself.
I am trauma informed and EMDR trained, shaped by years in family systems, community mental health, and crisis response. We move at a pace that respects exactly where you are, and we work toward the moment you feel like yourself again. Clients often tell me they feel both comforted and motivated, which is precisely what I hope for.

A way back to yourself.
Full of life, on and off the clock.
Outside of sessions, you will find me with a good book or a show that moves me, with friends, or traveling. One of my favorite memories is connecting with the culture in Ghana. My dog Kody reminds me to slow down, and the right playlist, usually something with a beat, keeps me grounded. I bring that same warmth and energy into the room with you.
Begin with Antanet.
