Are you not feeling like yourself lately? I work with women who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, irritated, sad, or simply not where they’d like to be. Maybe you’re dealing with relationship challenges, aging parents, family estrangement, a career change, financial stress, or a transition you didn’t see coming. Sometimes changes in how you look or see yourself, whether from illness, hair loss, or other life changes, can affect your confidence in ways that are hard to explain. You don’t have to have everything figured out before you reach out. We’ll start where you are and work from there.

📧 Email: [email protected]

📅 Calendar: https://calendar.app.google/mthW2bCyu8UjfChA9

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

Self-Pay clients: may request longer appointments

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.
