Psychiatry Care in Durham

Psychiatric care at Pulse Psychiatry is about understanding the why behind what you're feeling and building a treatment plan that actually fits your life. Dr. Daley's commitment to personalized treatment is reflected in her smaller practice, allowing for prompt access, flexible appointment scheduling (including weekends and evenings), and comprehensive care coordination.

Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, or a mix of symptoms that don’t quite have a name yet, Dr. Daley takes the time to get the full picture. That means space to explore your story and a thoughtful approach to diagnosis that centers you—not just your symptoms.

As both a psychiatrist and therapist, Dr. Daley offers medication management that's grounded in trust, collaboration, and clarity. If medication is part of your care, you'll receive ongoing support. If it’s not, that’s okay too. The focus is on what works for you.

  • Coordination of care with your therapist, primary care provider, or other specialists (as needed)
