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 have worked with clients and their families in various capacities for the past 12 years. I have found that I love helping people heal from past traumas and overcome whatever is holding them back. Through my training, I have found that the brain and body have incredible healing mechanisms hardwired into them. I am honored to be able to help others unlock those healing aspects and to help people enjoy their lives more fully. I earned a Bachelor of Science in Religious Studies and later completed my Master of Arts in Counseling at Multnomah University in Portland, Oregon. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Oregon and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Washington.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Tacoma
Finding addiction therapists in Tacoma starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, drug use, nicotine use, gambling, and other behavioral concerns. Some therapists focus on approaches like motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, or relapse prevention planning. Some people also work with a prescriber as part of their care team, so it helps to look for a therapist whose listed specialties match the type of care you want.
Tacoma has a range of local mental health care options, including therapists near downtown, North End, South Tacoma, and nearby Pierce County communities. Depending on your schedule and transportation needs, you may prefer an in-person office visit or a virtual appointment. Recovery can shift over time, so a good fit may include a therapist who offers flexible availability, uses a non-judgmental approach, and has experience with harm reduction frameworks. Reading therapist bios can help you see how they describe addiction care, their communication style, and whether they offer a free phone consultation before booking.
Therapy in Tacoma can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find addiction therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, many of whom are accepting new patients, and offer upfront cost estimates after you enter your insurance details. You can compare therapists, review their profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
