Hi, I’m Dr. Deneice, DNP, MBA, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC. I am a doctoral-prepared, board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner and owner of Eden Total Care.
I provide concierge-style virtual psychiatric care for young-feeling adults at any age who are navigating anxiety, depression, insomnia, PTSD, PMDD, ADHD, autism-related concerns, mood symptoms, emotional overwhelm, burnout, and diagnostic uncertainty.
My primary role is psychiatric evaluation and medication management. I also incorporate supportive therapy, life coaching, and holistic guidance when appropriate. My goal is to help you feel heard, understood, and properly treated — not rushed, dismissed, or reduced to a diagnosis.
Appointment Guide:
• New clients: 40-minute initial assessment
• Returning clients: 20-minute follow-up
• 40-minute follow-ups: provider-approved only based on clinical need
Please email or message me before booking an appointment to ensure availability. Limited appointment times are available, and emailing directly is the fastest way to get started.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 10 years of experience. I focus on helping clients understand their thoughts, emotions, and patterns so they can develop healthier ways of coping. Together we will work on building practical skills to manage anxiety, improve communication, strengthen relationships, and increase confidence in everyday life.
I view therapy as a collaborative journey toward personal growth and fulfillment. I strive to create a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where clients feel comfortable exploring their thoughts, emotions, and experiences, and where we can work together to build meaningful, practical solutions for a more fulfilling future.
My name is Lamar Gilmore and I'm a licensed clinical therapist with over two decades of inpatient and outpatient experience working with adolescents, adults and families. I specialize in helping clients to improve their insight by using a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy with a trauma informed approach to minimizing stress and anxiety. By working together, my intentions are to help clients to learn coping skills that create positive changes in their life. I also specialize in issues related to substance use and abuse.
For 18 years I have worked alongside adults through anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and the transitions that turn life upside down. I believe therapy works best when you can show up exactly as you are. In our sessions, we build on your strengths, move at a pace that feels right for you, and work toward meaningful, lasting change. Whether you are navigating a specific challenge or simply looking for a space to better understand yourself, I would love to connect.
I first received my Master's in Guidance & Counseling in the 1990s from Hunter College in Manhattan and obtained an Advanced Certificate in Mental Health Counseling from the University at Buffalo. I have also been a practicing, licensed massage therapist for nearly 30 years. I have clinical experience providing empathic mental health care for individuals, couples, families, and groups and have treated anxiety, trauma, depression, personality and eating disorders, as well as other mental health concerns. I have also treated physical disease conditions and physical trauma with mind/body techniques. Each client is unique, and raising awareness of thoughts, emotions, and behaviors is the focus in working collaboratively and intentionally towards realistic solutions.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 20 years of experience providing compassionate and effective mental health care and psychotherapy in diverse clinical settings. I have dedicated my career to supporting individuals through various life challenges and transitions. This extensive experience ensures you receive knowledgeable and skilled guidance tailored to your specific needs.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Brooklyn
Searching for addiction therapists in Brooklyn starts with finding someone whose experience matches the kind of support you want. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, drug use, substance use disorder, gambling, compulsive behaviors, relapse prevention, and changes in relationships or daily routines. Look for a therapist who lists experience with addiction recovery, substance use support, or behavioral concerns in their bio. Relevant approaches may include motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, and coordination with a prescriber when medication management is part of your care team.
Brooklyn has many therapists across neighborhoods, but the right fit depends on more than location. You may want an office near transit, a virtual appointment that fits your schedule, or a therapist with evening availability. Recovery can involve changes over time, so it helps to look for someone who describes a clear, non-judgmental approach and experience with harm reduction frameworks. Before booking, read therapist profiles for details about their style, session structure, specialties, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Therapy in Brooklyn can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find addiction therapists who may accept insurance, are accepting new patients, and show estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can compare bios, check availability, 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
