You’re the one who usually has everything under control, but lately, the "strong" version of you feels like a mask that’s getting too heavy to wear. Whether you’re a mother wondering why you feel detached from the life you worked so hard to build, or a parent exhausted by the cycle of ADHD-related challenges—you don’t have to carry this alone.

I provide a warm, judgment-free space where you can stop surviving and start thriving. My approach is patient-centered, trauma-informed, and evidence-based, tailored to move you toward a life where you feel present, connected, and capable.

I specialize in:

  • Perinatal & Maternal Mental Health: Navigating the "new reality" of motherhood.
  • High-Achieving Professionals: Managing burnout, perfectionism, and "mental load."
  • Neurodiversity-Affirming Care: Supporting parents and children navigating ADHD and behavioral hurdles.

Why Work With Me?

I offer a "cozy" office experience in Houston, TX, and convenient virtual care across 7 states ( DE, FL, GA, IA, KS, MT, and TX). My goal is to make mental health easy, accessible and relatable.

Find the right psychiatrist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Wilmington, DE

Searching for psychiatrists in Wilmington starts with understanding the type of care you want. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage ongoing medication care. Therapists provide talk therapy and usually do not prescribe medication. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, or medication management, either psychiatry, therapy, or both may fit your needs. Review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and care focus to see whether their background matches what you want help with.

Wilmington has local mental health care options across neighborhoods like Trolley Square, Riverside, and Eastside, but appointment supply can vary in a smaller city. Virtual psychiatry can expand your choices beyond nearby offices while keeping care tied to your schedule. Medication management visits are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, and some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. As you compare profiles, look for appointment availability, whether the psychiatrist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. A bio can also show how they communicate, what conditions they often support, and what to expect in the first visit.

Psychiatric care in Wilmington can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before booking. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who match your needs, with many accepting insurance and all listed providers accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details, see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront, compare bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
