I am a Clinical Psychologist licensed in Delaware and Iowa. I earned my doctorate (Psy.D., Doctor of Psychology in Clinical Psychology) from the Fuller School of Psychology at Fuller Theological Seminary in California.

I have over 10 years of clinical experience working with diverse populations in the East Coast, Midwest, and Los Angeles area in a variety of settings, such as outpatient behavioral agencies, a psychiatric hospital focusing on chemical dependency, a university counseling center, and a school district. I also received a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Counseling from Hong Kong.

I provide psychotherapy for individuals, couples, and families dealing with a wide variety of concerns. My clinical interests include anxiety and mood disorders, trauma recovery, grief and loss, family of origin issues, ADHD, relational distress, perfectionism, cross-cultural adjustments, and spirituality. I was trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) in 2021 and my specialty area is to help individuals with complex childhood traumas and PTSD using attachment-informed EMDR interventions.

Kiera Pritchett

Therapist

Virtual • Delaware


My name is Kiera Pritchett and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over nine years of experience supporting individuals, families, and communities through some of life's most challenging seasons. I earned my degree from Delaware State University and have dedicated my career to providing compassionate, trauma-informed care to those who are ready to begin their healing journey.

My path into this work was not accidental — it was personal. My own experience of overcoming childhood trauma became the foundation of my calling. That journey gave me a deep understanding of what it means to carry pain that others cannot always see, and it is what drives my commitment to meeting every client with empathy, authenticity, and genuine belief in their capacity to heal and grow.

Throughout my career I have developed specialized experience working with adults and adolescents navigating trauma and post-traumatic stress, depression and anxiety, grief and loss, relationship and family challenges, self-esteem and identity development, and emotional regulation difficulties. I utilize evidence-based approaches including trauma-informed care, cognitive behavioral therapy, strengths-based practice, and motivational interviewing — always tailoring my approach to the unique needs, background, and goals of each individual I work with.

Where an atmosphere of non-judgement exists, lies comfort for one to explore themselves. Mindfulness-based, CBT best describes my style. I value open-mindedness and also feel it is important to address how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors influence one another. Training and education in Community Mental Health from Wilmington University launched a two decade long mission for me to explore the field of psychology and help others to optimize the quality of their life.

Find the right couples therapist for you

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

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Newark, DE

Finding couples therapists in Newark starts with clarifying what you and your partner want to work on. Couples therapy may focus on communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, parenting disagreements, or major life transitions. If you’re searching for couples counseling in Newark, DE, marriage counseling in Newark, DE, or premarital counseling in Delaware, look for a therapist whose listed training matches your needs. Many couples choose licensed marriage and family therapists, or therapists with specific couples training, such as the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy.

In a smaller city like Newark, local couples therapists may have more limited availability, so virtual appointments can expand your options across Delaware. Finding one therapist who works for both partners also means comparing schedules, appointment format, and fit. Some therapists offer a brief initial consultation, which can help both partners understand the therapist’s approach before booking a full session. Reading profiles can also show how a therapist structures couples sessions, how they describe their communication style, and whether they work with the concerns most relevant to your relationship.

Couples 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, and Headway helps you see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can use Headway to find couples therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review detailed bios, compare virtual and in-person availability, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
