I believe that healing happens best in a space that feels both professional and human. With over a decade of experience supporting vulnerable children, families, and adults, I’ve dedicated my career to helping people navigate their most challenging seasons—specializing in substance use recovery and child and adolescent mental health.

My background is rooted in a BA in Psychology from the University of Delaware and an MSW from West Chester University. While my training prepared me to navigate complex medical and educational systems like school IEP/504 meetings, disciplinary boards, hospital teams, and the foster care system, my real-world experience has taught me that every individual and family needs a unique, compassionate approach.

I’m a firm believer that the world needs more laughter, and that therapy doesn't always have to feel heavy. When I’m not in the office, I’m usually painting or glued to a good book. I believe that therapy, much like art, is a process of creation and discovery, and I’d be honored to walk that path with you.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands ADHD

Headway helps you stay on track with expert-guided support for ADHD — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Newark

Finding the right ADHD therapist or psychiatrist in Newark, DE starts with understanding what kind of support you're looking for. Therapists — such as licensed professional counselors (LPCs), licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs), and psychologists — can provide talk therapy using approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) or behavioral therapy. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can diagnose ADHD and manage medication. Some people benefit from working with both a therapist and a psychiatrist, especially when combining therapy with medication management.

When narrowing your search, consider what matters most to you — whether that's a provider who specializes in adult ADHD, someone experienced with children and teens, or a specific therapy style. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their background and approach before you book. If you're near the University of Delaware, Wilmington, or surrounding New Castle County communities, you may also want to consider whether virtual or in-person sessions fit your schedule best.

ADHD therapy in Newark can be expensive without insurance, but using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find an ADHD specialist who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
