Mental Health Care in Delaware

Access gap in Delaware: Delaware has fewer than 15 practicing psychiatrists per 100,000 residents, and more than 45% of Delaware's population lives in designated mental health professional shortage areas — making telehealth the most accessible psychiatric option for many Delawareans.

Whether you are in Wilmington, a rural community, or anywhere in between, you can access board-certified psychiatric care from the comfort of home — via secure, HIPAA-compliant video. Check the scheduling portal for current appointment availability; most major insurance plans are accepted.
