Teineicia was born on the island of Trinidad and came to New York at the age of 12. The resilience she gained from these experiences has impacted her professional interests and helped keep her going. She was initially drawn to the psychiatry field after seeing mental health concerns go unaddressed due to stigma. She keeps working in the field because she enjoys seeing clients improve. Her treatment methods include care that is non-judgmental, evidence-based, and individualized.
When she isn’t working, Teineicia enjoys practicing yoga, watching movies, and going to comedy shows.
