Hi, I’m Heather Wilson Pham, a psychotherapist and Doctor of Social Work (DSW) candidate with over 10 years of experience in mental health. I specialize in helping women navigate anxiety, trauma, relationship patterns, and financial stress, especially when these challenges are connected. My work focuses on empowering clients to build confidence, clarity, and independence in both their emotional and practical lives. I blend therapy with real-world strategies so clients can create meaningful, lasting change.

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.

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Newark
Finding OCD therapists in Newark starts with looking for training that matches obsessive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, intrusive thoughts, anxiety, and related stress. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is a common therapy approach for OCD, and not all therapists have specific training in it. As you compare options, look for therapists who list OCD, ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or acceptance and commitment therapy in their profiles, and read how they describe their approach to care.
Newark is a smaller city, so the number of local OCD therapists may be more limited than in larger nearby markets. Virtual appointments can expand your options across Delaware while still letting you choose care that fits your schedule. Beyond location, compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Provider bios can help you see the difference between therapists who mention OCD as an area of familiarity and therapists who describe specific ERP training or OCD-focused experience.
Therapy in Newark can be a significant investment without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs, take your insurance, and offer upfront cost estimates before you book. You can browse OCD therapists in Newark, review profiles, compare virtual and in-person options, and book directly when you’re ready.
