I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with more than 15 years of nursing experience, with the majority of my career spent in the emergency department. That experience has shaped me into a warm, direct, and nonjudgmental provider who understands that people often seek help during some of the most overwhelming moments of their lives.
I work with adults navigating ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, mood instability, overwhelming stress, and substance use. I believe mental health care should help you make sense of what you’re experiencing without leaving you feeling more overwhelmed.
I became a psychiatric provider because I wanted to help people quiet the crowded mind. Mental health challenges can make everything feel louder and harder to manage. My goal is to help you understand what may be contributing to how you feel, explore your treatment options, and develop a plan that feels manageable and individualized to you. I want treatment to create more clarity and more room for you to live your life.

I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, and I believe good mental health care starts with an actual conversation—not a checklist, a quick prescription, and a "see you in three months."
Before specializing in psychiatry, I spent over a decade working in emergency, critical care, and procedural nursing. That experience taught me that what's happening with your mental health rarely exists in a vacuum. Your physical health, hormones, relationships, stress, and everyday life all deserve a seat at the table.
I have a particular passion for helping women navigate ADHD, anxiety, bipolar, depression, PMDD, perimenopause, and those wonderfully complicated seasons of life when everything seems to be changing at once.
My approach is evidence-based, hormone-informed, and collaborative. I'm not here to throw medications at symptoms and cross my fingers. I'm here to ask thoughtful questions, connect the dots, explain your options, and help you find a treatment plan that actually fits your life.
You can expect honest conversations, education without the medical jargon, a little humor when the moment calls for it, and absolutely no judgment. Most importantly, you'll always have a voice in your care. You're the expert on your lived experience, and my job is to bring the clinical expertise to help you make informed decisions.
Because you deserve more than someone who listens just long enough to write a prescription. You deserve someone who truly listens.

28280 Portage Point, Millsboro, DEAt Shore House Wellness Collective, I help individuals better understand their mental health and take meaningful steps toward feeling more like themselves again. I work with patients experiencing anxiety, depression, mood changes, trauma, life transitions, substance use and recovery, stress, sleep concerns, or simply a sense that something isn’t quite right.
My approach centers on comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, medication prescribing and ongoing medication management, combined with brief, evidence-based psychotherapy when appropriate. I believe medication should be individualized—not simply prescribed—and that patients deserve to understand their treatment options, potential benefits, and what to expect. I work collaboratively with you to identify what is working, what isn’t, and when adjustments may be needed.
Psychotherapy is often brief, focused, and goal-oriented rather than open-ended. Depending on your needs, sessions may incorporate supportive therapy, coping strategies, psychoeducation, behavioral approaches, stress management, and practical tools designed to help you make progress between visits.

Frequently asked questions
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 Therapist in Delaware
Finding psychiatrists in Delaware starts with understanding the type of care you need. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and provide medication management. Therapists provide talk therapy and support through different approaches. If you are looking for care for anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or obsessive-compulsive disorder, either type of care may be part of your search. Review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, credentials, and approach so you can find care that matches your needs.
Across Delaware, the right fit may look different in Wilmington, Dover, Newark, or more rural areas. Some people prefer visiting a psychiatrist’s office, while others choose virtual appointments for more flexible scheduling. Psychiatric appointments for medication management are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. As you compare options, look at appointment availability, whether the psychiatrist is accepting new patients, and what their bio says about communication style and session structure.
Psychiatric care in Delaware can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists who match your preferences, verifies insurance information, and shows estimated costs upfront. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans, and coverage varies by location and plan details. You can review profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you are 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.
