I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor of Mental Health with over 10 years of experience helping adults navigate life's challenges. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression and trauma-related disorders using evidence-based and trauma-informed approaches.
As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I provide compassionate, evidence-based, and stigma-free care to support healing and lasting growth. With a background in emergency and trauma care, I take a collaborative, holistic approach that considers the connection between mind and body. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, trauma-related concerns, and mood disorders through a personalized combination of psychotherapy, medication management, and lifestyle support. My goal is to help you feel heard, empowered, and supported every step of the way, at a pace that feels right for you.
Hi, I’m Chigozie “Blessing” Amaefuna, and I know how heavy life can feel when depression, anxiety, PTSD, or other challenges seem to take over your day-to-day. Many of my clients come to me feeling overwhelmed, isolated, or hopeless—unsure if things can ever change. My role is to help you rediscover hope, calm, and strength in a space where you feel safe, respected, and truly heard.
Are you looking for an experienced mental health professional who listens to you carefully and with respect? Are you wanting a therapist who is honest with you, takes your goals seriously and wants to make sure you are receiving the support you want and deserve? If so, I may be a good fit for you.
I have extensive experience working with complex trauma, attachment issues, family, and spiritually and religiously-based trauma.
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a PhD in Social Work, bringing together doctoral-level research and extensive clinical experience to provide evidence-based therapy for children, adolescents, young adults, and families in Pennsylvania and Delaware. I specialize in anxiety, self-esteem, perfectionism, body image concerns, disordered eating, and eating disorder recovery.
My clinical background includes working closely with children, teens, and families in both mental health and medical settings, which has shaped my understanding of how emotional wellbeing is influenced by stress, family relationships, identity development, and the pressures many young people carry every day. I also understand that struggles with food, body image, anxiety, and self-worth often show up quietly at first—and deserve compassionate, thoughtful support.
I strive to create a therapy space that feels warm, nonjudgmental, and genuinely supportive. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, stuck in self-criticism, or unsure how to move forward. My goal is to help clients feel understood while building the insight, coping skills, and confidence needed to make meaningful change.
I’m also a doctoral candidate in Social Work, which reflects my commitment to providing evidence-informed care that is both thoughtful and deeply personalized. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, body image challenges, relationship stress, life transitions, or simply feeling unlike yourself lately, therapy can be a place to feel grounded, supported, and empowered.
I am a board-certified, bilingual (English/Spanish) psychiatrist who is passionate about understanding my clients at a deeper level and helping them find the emotional wellbeing they seek. After finishing my residency at the University of Miami/Jackson Health System, where I served as a Chief Resident, I completed a two-year interpersonal psychoanalysis course at the William Alanson White Institute in New York City.
Taking the first step toward better mental health can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to do it alone. I am Dr. Ete Kwegang, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing compassionate, patient-centered care for adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and other mental health conditions. Whether you're navigating a new challenge or managing a long-term condition, my goal is to help you feel supported, empowered, and hopeful every step of the way.
I provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and supportive therapy where you feel heard, respected, and involved in your treatment decisions. My goal is not only to treat symptoms but to help you build lasting wellness.
While providing care to individuals of all backgrounds and beliefs, if faith is important to you, I am happy to incorporate Christian values into your care when requested. Together, we'll work to improve your mental health, build resilience, and help you live a more fulfilling life.
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.
