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 believe in a collaborative and transparent treatment process. I value open communication. I want you to feel comfortable discussing your symptoms, concerns, and goals so we can work together to create a plan that truly supports your mental health.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Austin, TX
Searching for addiction therapists in Austin starts with finding someone whose training matches the kind of support you want. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, drug use, substance use concerns, gambling, or other behavioral patterns. Some therapists use approaches like motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, or care coordination with a prescriber when medication support is part of the care plan. As you compare addiction counselors or an addictions specialist, look for profiles that clearly list experience with your concern and describe how they structure care.
Austin has many therapists across areas like downtown, South Austin, East Austin, and North Austin, which can make the search feel broad at first. Start by narrowing for practical fit: in-person or virtual appointments, scheduling options, therapists accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Some people prefer an office near work or home, while others choose virtual sessions to expand access and reduce travel time. Reading therapist bios can also help you understand communication style, experience with harm reduction frameworks, and whether the therapist describes addiction care in a non-judgmental way.
Therapy in Austin can be a significant expense without insurance, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find Austin therapists who support addiction-related concerns and are accepting new patients. Nationally, Headway partners with 70+ insurance plans, and you can enter your insurance details to confirm coverage for your specific area and plan. You can enter your insurance details to see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking, then compare therapist profiles, review availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
