Donna B. Riley, LCSW, PhD Candidate - Gender Specialist, is currently accepting new client's into her private practice.
Since 1999, I have been serving the community through group work, community organizing and activism. In 2008 after returning to school to earn a masters in social work degree (MSW), I began working with Transgender/Gender Variant community members in a one-on-one clinical setting. I bring to my practice, not only my professional clinical education, but my personal experience as a out-and-proud woman of transgender experience.
