About Delaware Guidance Services

We are the largest provider of outpatient behavioral health services to children and families in Delaware, operating offices in Wilmington, Newark, Dover, Lewes, and Seaford. Our organization is accredited by JCAHO and has received recognition as a Compassionate Champion for our dedication to serving youth and families using a trauma-informed approach.

Our community-based service lines serve clients who require a more intense therapeutic protocol, including crisis intervention clinicians dispatched to provide immediate care during behavioral health crises. We offer a wide range of therapeutic options for various diagnoses, such as depression, anxiety, mood disorders, eating disorders, traumatic stress-related disorders, and suicidal ideation.

We cater to a racially and ethnically diverse client population, with 80% receiving Medicaid and 90% having household incomes under $30,000. Many of our clients face significant treatment challenges, including learning impacts due to missed school and negative economic impact on parental work. Despite this, we strive to provide care to anyone in need, regardless of insurance status or ability to pay for care.
