Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Delaware

I am a licensed Professional Counselor with over 30 years of experience working with diverse populations: Children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I have worked in various treatment settings: residential treatment, day treatment, foster care, agency, school (elementary, middle and high school), and private practice. I treat depression, anxiety, trauma, adolescent issues, family therapy, loss and grief, school issues, attachment, EAP/work-related issues. I am trained in PCIT.

My specialties include: adolescents, anxiety, depression, loss and grief, trauma, school and work-related issues.

A client will feel respected and nurtured from the moment that client walks into the practice. The atmosphere is peaceful and relaxing and conducive to working through issues and beginning the journey to a new you.

Our work together is based on collaborating to create goals that are aligned with your values. As a health psychologist, I emphasize working with my client to create the healthiest version of the self, both mind and body. My interest in both medicine and psychology took me to Philadelphia Osteopathic Medicine where I earned a Psy.D. in clinical health psychology. I have experience working with individuals with chronic health conditions (chronic pain and headache) and broad mental health concerns including anxiety, depression, insomnia, and grief. I also am passionate about providing LQBTIQ + affirming care.

I utilize Cognitive behavioral, Dialectical behavioral and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (CBT and ACT). I graduated from Delaware State University in 2019 with my Master of Social Work Degree. I currently hold my Licensed Clinical Social Work (LCSW) and Certified Advanced Drug and Alcohol Certification (CAADC). I’ve worked in various settings ranging from treating offenders in a correctional facility, residential mental health and substance use programs to outpatient individual therapy. I specialize in Addiction, Anxiety, Depression and Grief.

Life sometimes brings us moments where things don't feel quite right - relationships change, identities evolve, responsibilities grow, or the ways we’ve always coped stop working as well as they once did. Those moments can feel confusing, lonely, or heavy.

For more than 20 years, I’ve helped people move through those seasons of change.

Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable individuals who have spent years showing up for others - at work, in relationships, in their families - but feel uncertain about how to care for themselves in the same way. My clients often come to therapy feeling stuck in self-doubt, low mood, complicated family dynamics, body image struggles, or the quiet pressure to be everything for everyone.

I work with adults across many life stages - college students finding their direction, young adults building their lives, and mid-career professionals balancing work, relationships, parenting, or caregiving. I also have experience supporting military members and their families and provide affirming therapy for transgender clients.

Above all, I believe therapy should be a place where you feel respected, understood, and able to reconnect with your own voice.
