Empowered parents, happy teens.
Hi, I'm Donna! As a parent of two young adult daughters and a therapist of 30 years, guiding teens and young adults as they learn to navigate the world is my passion.
​
Now, I've put all of that experience into educational materials in the hopes of empowering my fellow clinicians and parents to relate to, connect with, and support the teens in their life.
Over the course of my career, I have worked in both corporate and non-profit settings in healthcare leadership roles, including National Director of Patient Services for the Leukemia Society of America, Health Educator for New York Association for New Americans, and Online Community Director for iVillage.com, Weightwatchers.com and Disney.com.

In addition to my thriving private practice, I am Clinical Supervisor at Solace House USA, a free suicide prevention service. The first appointment will be helpful in understanding the client's history, expertly assessing the level of crisis, and determining if the connection is comfortable.
