I am Jane Abiona, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC). I provide compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care for adolescents and adults with anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and other mental health conditions. I work with people who are emotionally trapped, feel overworked, or struggle to perform at their best. Whether your objectives are recovery, emotional balance, medication management, or symptom relief, I am here to help you achieve meaningful wellbeing.

My approach combines medication management with supportive treatment, CBT, and Motivational Interviewing. In a secure, judgment-free setting, I customize treatment to each client's objectives, helping them develop resilience, coping mechanisms, and emotional wellness.

Asking for help is a courageous first step; you don't have to face life's challenges alone. Every client should feel heard, appreciated, understood, and empowered in addition to having a well-defined recovery strategy. I am excited to support you as you pursue improved mental health and a more fulfilling life.

Based in Delaware, I am a licensed professional counselor of mental health with over 20 years of dedicated service in the human services field. My practice is committed to supporting individuals and families as they navigate mental and emotional challenges, drawing on extensive experience and a compassionate approach. I work with adolescents, adults, and seniors with a variety of conditions from depression or anxiety to trauma and dissociative identity disorder. 

My therapeutic philosophy centers on person-centered and integrative techniques. I tailor each treatment plan to the unique needs of my clients. I am actively involved in community initiatives, providing crisis counseling, trauma-focused therapy, and psycho-educational groups for underserved populations. I strive to increase access to quality care. 

I believe in client-centered care and the power of therapeutic connection. My goal is to guide clients toward greater mental and emotional well-being, empowering them to overcome adversity and lead fulfilling lives. With compassion and expertise, I am committed to making a positive impact in the lives of those I serve.

My name is Careen Neba, and I am a licensed clinical social worker. I am in the field to assist those in need with warmth and compassion to reach their full potential. I have experience in both clinical and managerial roles focusing on mental health disorders, including depression, bipolar, anxiety, disruptive mood dysregulation, ADHD, trauma-informed care, stress management, and loss and grief, as well as helping with life skills development. 

I meet the client where he or she is at. My approach is strength-based and I listen keenly with empathy. We partner to identify and work on the goals set by each client. 

I work with clients by bringing warmth and positive regard to everyone to foster a therapeutic working relationship. I provide validation of their thoughts and feelings, recognizing the inner strengths they have. I work together with clients, encouraging them to look for solutions to their problems and appropriate ways to cope with life.

My name is Judith Pantalino, and I've gone by Judy since childhood. I earned my MS in Community Counseling from Wilmington University in May 2013 and am licensed as a Mental Health Therapist in Delaware. I work with clients experiencing anxiety and depressive symptoms due to grief and loss—most often through the death of a loved one. My bereavement clients are often navigating loneliness for the first time in their lives, whether they've lost a spouse of many decades or a child at any age. This type of healing tends to be a long-term emotional recuperation with weekly therapy sessions.

I begin the therapeutic process using person-centered therapy. I like to add onto this process with CBT. It is a collaborative process between the client and therapist together and is helpful in identifying and changing negative thoughts and behaviors. These thoughts and behaviors can be the cause of your anxiety, stress and/or depressive thoughts. 

I believe in you as you make your first step towards a more peaceful life. Each step matters as you progress in your well-being. My goal is to walk alongside you as you gain confidence and move toward this peaceful life. I hope you'll take the next step and schedule a session where we can work together as you heal and grow.
