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.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C), LICSW who mainly specializes in adult individual, couples, and family counseling. I am currently licensed in MD, DC, DE, and FL, and PA.
Here is my website loriceparker.com.
I have 20 years of experience providing therapy for individuals, families, and couples. I also have over 28 years of experience working in various social work settings. I am a certified life coach, a licensed minister as well as an author. I believe that every person has the right and ability to live a purposeful and fulfilled life. My goal is to empower, affirm, and build individuals to reach their maximum potential. I will never impose religious beliefs on my clients and will always value and support their individual perspectives. I enjoy facilitating workshops on various life issues, divorce, grief and loss and empowerment. I have facilitated several trainings for other professionals, and I have conducted training around Grief and Loss, Trauma Informed Care, and Understanding Child Development.
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.

With over 20 years of experience in the mental health field, I've had the privilege of working across a wide range of treatment settings, including acute care, non-acute care, residential treatment, and outpatient therapy. I work with adolescents and adults and have experience providing individual and couples therapy.
My primary areas of focus include relationship counseling using the Gottman Method, chronic pain and chronic illness through Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), addiction treatment informed by the work of Dr. Carl Hart, and Borderline Personality Disorder using Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).
In addition to these specialty areas, I frequently help clients navigate anxiety, panic attacks, depression, life transitions, adjustment disorders, parenting challenges, workplace stress, and the everyday demands that can leave us all feeling overwhelmed!
There's a particular exhaustion that comes from being strong for everyone — from carrying your history in your body, from holding complexity in a world that keeps asking you to pick one lane. Whether you're sorting through old trauma, navigating mood swings that feel out of your control, or sitting with the weight of relationships that have hurt you, you don't need to figure it out by yourself. Many of my clients are high-functioning people who've been told they're fine — and they're tired of pretending that's the whole story.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Newark
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.
