For many years as a doctor, I have been captivated by the fascinating intricacies of the human mind—a passion that continues to guide my work today. Through my practice, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for the grit and determination of the human spirit and the individuality of every person’s path. Each person’s journey has been a reminder of the strength, complexity, and uniqueness we all carry within us.
My Hobbies
I’m a book lover through and through—you can usually find me curled up with a good story or an intriguing idea. My reading list is a mix of psychoanalytic papers that get me thinking deeply, poetry that stirs my soul, and stories that spark my imagination. Reading fuels my writing and helps me connect with the questions and emotions that make us human.
I tend to my orchids when I’m not lost in a book. They’re a little high-maintenance, but I adore them. I’ve been known to give them pep talks—encouraging words to coax out those elusive blooms. Caring for them reminds me to slow down, breathe, and appreciate the small, quiet moments of beauty in the world. It’s a much-needed balance to the busyness of life.
My Writing
As a blogger, I aim to share thoughtful insights on mental health and the key moments that shape our lives. Through my writing, I hope to offer perspectives to help you navigate your journey, enrich your understanding of yourself, and inspire meaningful growth. It’s exciting and humbling to bring years of experience and reflection to this project. I’m eager to see where this writing journey leads and hope that my words bring value and enrichment to your life.

She works with various conditions, offering a thoughtful, well-rounded approach.
Dr. Antia’s curiosity about the human experience took her on an impressive journey. She completed her adult psychiatry residency at Temple University before heading to the University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Medical Center for her child and adolescent psychiatry residency. There, she served as the Chief Resident. Her quest for knowledge and growth led her to pursue a two-year program in psycho-dynamic psychotherapy at the Florida Psychoanalytic Center, followed by a rigorous four-year advanced program in psychoanalytic theory at the same institution. While her residences honed her expertise in diagnosing and treating mental health disorders, her psychoanalytic training added a rich understanding of the complexities of our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. This blend of medical rigor and deep psychological insight allows Dr. Antia to see beyond the disorder, focusing on the whole person.
Dr. Antia is embarking on an exciting new chapter: the world of authorship. After decades of immersing herself in the dense but fascinating realms of medical textbooks, academic articles, and psychoanalytic literature, she hopes to synthesize complex jargon into clear, relatable prose. After decades of hearing similar questions about the human experience from people from all walks of life, Dr. Antia started writing to make this information more accessible. She aims to provide evidence-based answers to questions that many people find themselves pondering throughout their lives.
This website chronicles her leap into writing. A journey fueled by curiosity and determination. Along the way, she will share her experiences as a new author, offering glimpses into the challenges and triumphs of turning decades of expertise into compelling stories and actionable advice. Her eventual goal is to create a series of books and blogs that demystify mental health for everyone.
