We have been seeing Dr. Emily Danon for over a year with our daughter who has severe ADHD and ODD…read more Emily has been pivotal in reaching us how to effectively parent and support our child, as well as help improve her self-confidence, life skills and coping with her disorders in a very positive, professional way. She has always gone out of her way to support us and our daughter, including facilitating sessions during vacations, summer camps, etc. Since beginning therapy here, our communication and relationship with our daughter has never been better. Emily genuinely cares for her patients and it shows. It's worth mentioning, Emily is one of my daughters favorite people. So it's safe to say it goes both ways. We painstakingly searched for months and months for a pediatric therapist and I couldn't be happier. I would recommend Emily to absolutely anyone.

I met Lindsey when I was pregnant with my oldest daughter in 2013. She was my Hypnobirthing Teacher…read morebut I learned so much from her. As a first time mom, I had no idea! Her Hypnobirthing training includes instruction on pregnancy, labor, delivery, and postpartum care. It is clear that Lindsey is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about her work. She provides research to back up her assertions and she shares her own birth stories, which are inspiring. In 2015, I contacted Lindsey again as I prepared for my 2nd daughter. I was so happy with Lindsey's advice and the way my birth story unfolded. I also contacted Lindsey for the birth of my 3rd baby, my son. Once again, Lindsey gave me sound advice and I followed it to the T! I was blessed to have a successful water birth at home. I KNOW it would not have been possible without Lindsey. I highly recommend her! Thank you so much Lindsey!!!!

Lindsey's professionalism and compassion are what you need. I was blown away by our virtual hypnotherapy. The amazing tools she gives to her client stay with you when you need them most. I would recommend her to anyone preparing for birth or going through anything where they need a little support. Stop scrolling through reviews of doulas and just contact Lindsey. She works with amazing people who will form an entire team to support you.

Joan helped me through a lot in my life. As an adolescent,…read moreI'd seen a lot of therapists- particularly because I'd had a rough time. Growing into adulthood is a struggle for anyone, and I was having a rough time. You meet people that care, and then you meet people that both care and can engage you. The latter is Joan Normandy-Dohlberg. Not only did Joan make me feel comfortable & safe to express my feelings (& share my deepest darkest,) but she engaged me in a way I knew I was heard & felt I could accomplish more & do better for myself- no judgment, no falsity. She helped me every step of the way, ESPECIALLY when I was in my own way. As someone who's seen a lot of therapists in the greater Burke/DMV area, I want to be clear that I am leaving this review as a GLOWING review of Ms. Dr. Joan Normandy-Dolberg-- and you'll be hard-pressed to find a better therapist than her.

I have been seeing Joan Normandy-Dolberg for the past year and she has helped me make SIGNIFICANT…read moreprogress in dealing with an abusive childhood and depression. She is very knowledgeable and uses different methods to help you cope and understand your feelings and so you can process a painful past and not let it impinge on the rest of your life. She is a great listener but unlike another therapist I had in the past, she doesn't just listen and tell you its "normal", she actually discusses how it's affecting you and ways to lessen it's impact on your mental health. She uses EMDR, a therapy that helped me SO much by lessening the pain of past trauma and now the remembrances of these events is much more infrequent and does not cause high levels of anxiety. You can ask my husband, my life has vastly improved since I started seeing Joan. Karen, her office manager, is very sweet and friendly and it is just such a great environment. If you are in need of a genuine, caring and highly qualified counselor, I highly recommend Joan.

She decided not to take me on as a patient after briefly reviewing my family history, which I don't blame her for but made all the effort to set up an appointment feel like a giant waste of time. My frustration was compounded by the lack of communication regarding billing. Despite my efforts to inquire about the cost before and after the session, my emails went unanswered. I was then surprised with a large bill for a short visit that did not result in any progress. Had they responded to any of my inquiries, I would not have written this negative review.
