Greetings and thank you for viewing my profile. I'm Njideka (In-jah-day-ka) Wiggins, a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) located in Wilmington, Delaware
Counseling is my second career, after 26 successful years in corporate America. I have been a practicing therapist, working with children, individuals and families for the past 16 years.
I am a client centered therapist, meaning I believe each client comes to this process with an unique experience and way of being in the world. As such, I have a holistic approach to counseling, pulling from many theories and modalities, but predominately focused on integrating the best of psychodynamic theory (helping my client see and understand their patterns of emotions, thoughts and behaviors) with cognitive behavioral theory (solution-focused methods) and systems theory (how one exists in the larger world) to create lasting, characterlogical change.
I enjoy working with clients that are seeking support to heal from unresolved trauma; mend family and other relational conflicts; manage depression, anxiety and ADHD challenges; navigate life/career cycle issues; overcome caregiver/compassion fatigue and grief. I recognize and respect the courage it takes to embark upon a journey to emotional wellness and I am humbled and honored to bear witness to your walk.
Thank you again, for allowing me the opportunity of your consideration . Should you have any questions about my therapeutic process or how we would work together to achieve your goals, please feel free to ask.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

I was very impressed with Njideka and she answered all my questions with a different perspective for me to look at and that was very helpful for me. I'm looking forward to more sessions.
I really like her approach I know she is listening to me and verifies my emotions. I really click with her .
Njideka causes me to examine myself without being pushy. She is easy to talk to and I feel able to discuss anything without embarrassment. She also has a good sense of humor whch makes the sessions comfortable. Njideka has made it clear that it is my time and I need to take control to set agendas - this has helped me focus the sessions.
I respect her ability to appropriately analyze and provide feedback unique to my issues.
I have found Njideka to be sensitive and caring! She really listens and helps you find ways to address your problems.
Njideka has been so understanding and supportive on helping me to understand the way I think and act. I look forward to each session and she has helped me learn so much about myself in a short amount of time! I am so blessed to have her as my therapist.
She brings to this very personal experience a wealth of professional and life applicable wisdom with a very intentional effort to help. Very happy I was paired to Dr. Wiggins for my emotional care needs.
Njideka is wonderful and I am so happy to have her as my therapist. She is kind, understanding, and truly listens ands helps you to get to the root of the issues at hand.
My therapist Njideka Wiggins and I have been working together for about two months now. I have found my experience with her to be extremely helpful. She understands and comprehends my feelings, concerns, past trauma and current issues. I am a difficult patient as I am a talk therapist as well, she works with me in a way that I understand and don’t feel talked down too. It’s difficult for a therapist to treat another therapist, she is excellent. I am very grateful for her and her expertise.
Njideka has been excellent about working with me on my ADHD, and she has been very insightful about her experiences and has offered me ways to work on my communication and to help organize my thoughts.
Njideka Wiggins listens to my concerns and offers me guidance in our sessions. She is thoughtful with the way that she presents me with information and sources for my own research purpose. She is a great therapist.
Njideka Wiggins is a wonderful therapist. She doesn't just hears you she can relate to what I am going through and has given me advice that is/has helped me navigate through some very difficult times. I would describe her as a good friend that gives sound professional advice.
Like everyone before me has written, Ms. Wiggins is helpful, wise, caring and personable. Her insight has helped me through a difficult transition and I would recommend her to friends and family.
To be able to sit down with a therapist and connect for the first time made me very comfortable. Njideka gives tips and different perspectives that allows me to go about everyday life differently. Very personable and she listens!! I thoroughly enjoy my sessions.
Njideka has been the missing piece of guidance i’ve been needing for a long time. No matter how much work I do on my own, she provides the remaining guidance that lifts me up every session. Her insight provides different perspectives that allow me to understand myself on deeper levels. The more I understand myself, the healthier my mind becomes. Njideka has been a wonderful, insightful, structured, and empathetic guide on my journey.
Very kind and patient!
I am happy with my therapist. She’s helping me a lot
amazing therapist!
In the past, I've had very bad experiences with therapists. In one session I felt Njideka Wiggins truly understood my struggles with trauma and gave me the deeply needed validation and compassion I was seeking. I feel more empowered and hopeful as we go through each session. I'm not looking for someone to dump my issues on. She helps me develop and keep a plan of action for my path of healing. Navigating my emotional journey is so much better when I have someone who understands me instead of judging me. Trust is priceless.
Wonderful therapy session.
