Community Mental-Health Care

Delaware Behavioral Health has both Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners (APRNs) and Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs) so patients can have one clinic for medication management and psychotherapy.

Our Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners (NPs) have advanced medical training so they are able to evaluate and diagnose mental health conditions as well as prescribe medicines to treat them. Click here to learn more about medications commonly used in mental-health treatment

DBH clinicians are committed to helping people from all backgrounds and walks of life overcome challenges so they can live their best lives.

Our therapists are Licensed Clinical Social Workers who understand how mental health is connected to different parts of life, like your living situation and personal history. Talking to a therapist can help relieve mental health symptoms, especially when combined with medical treatment if needed. Therapy can be short or long-term, and may include techniques like talk therapy, CBT, or mindfulness to help you manage emotions and improve your well-being. It’s a safe space to explore challenges and find better ways to cope.. Psychotherapy can be short- or long-term, and along with talk therapy, some therapists use methods such as Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), which is based on scientific research about how the brain heals from traumatic experiences.
