My name is Henry Coffield and I believe in mental wellness. The beginning of any process has to involve belief. I have worked for over 20 years in this field. I bring an open minded , humorous perspective through the therapeutic process. I believe in medication management yet it has to include additional work such as mentorship, life coach, therapist, spiritual advisor.
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 psychiatric nurse practitioner who has worked across outpatient psychiatry, private practice, and long-term care. That range has shaped how I approach mental health: I believe every person's situation is unique, and I don't come in with a preset agenda. You can expect honesty, transparency, and a genuine commitment to understanding what you need. I'm building this practice on integrity, and my goal is to make sure you always know what's happening with your care and why.
My clients should know that I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who values compassion, respect, and collaboration. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, understood, and supported. I recognize that each person’s experiences, strengths, and challenges are unique, and I honor the courage it takes to seek mental health care. My goal is to build a trusting therapeutic relationship and to meet clients where they are in their journey.
I provide outpatient psychiatric and mental health services, including psychiatric evaluations, medication management, follow-up appointments, and ongoing mental health treatment. Services may be provided through telehealth or in person, as applicable. Patients are charged for services at the time of their appointment or according to their insurance benefits, including applicable copayments, coinsurance, or self-pay fees.
Hi My name is Hilary Chentow. I am a licensed clinical social worker living in PA and practicing in PA, WA and DE. I use CBT, DBT, mindfulness, Polyvagal theory and Internal Family Systems and will share resources in abundance. I was a teacher before I made a midlife career change to become a therapist. I am not a one size fits all therapist. And I am ok with that. Right fit is important.

My experience includes working with patients diagnosed with bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, major depressive disorder (MDD), anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and addiction.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Newark
Finding addiction therapists in Newark starts with matching your needs to the right clinical experience. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, substance use, prescription substance concerns, gambling, and other behavioral patterns. Some therapists use approaches like motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, or relapse prevention planning. Some people may also work with a prescriber as part of their care team, so it can help to look for therapists who coordinate with other healthcare professionals when needed.
Newark is a smaller city, so local addiction therapists with immediate availability may be limited. Virtual therapy can expand your options across Delaware while still giving you access to care from home. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they are accepting new patients, and how they describe their approach to addiction care. Recovery paths can change over time, so it may help to choose a therapist whose bio clearly signals nonjudgmental care, harm reduction experience, and support for your specific concerns.
Therapy in Newark can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway makes it easier to find addiction therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated costs before booking, and compare therapists by specialty, availability, and format. You can review bios, check fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741
