Dana Harron

Dana Harron, PsyD, is a practicing psychologist in the Dupont Circle neighborhood of Washington, DC. She is founder and director of Monarch Wellness and Psychotherapy, a boutique practice that specializes in mind-body problems such as eating disorders, anxiety, trauma, fertility issues, and depression. Harron enjoys working with couples, and helping partners individually to understand eating disorders and learn how to give appropriate support. Harron completed her doctorate at Widener University’s Institute for Graduate Clinical Psychology, where she was also the honored recipient of the Neubauer community service scholarship and the Empathy and Caring Award. She completed internships at the Renfrew Center and the Belmont Center, both in Philadelphia, PA.

Since then, she has engaged in a variety of professional activities ranging from co-leadership of a unit at the state hospital of Delaware to college counseling, and eventually to private practice. She is currently dividing her time between writing, speaking, clinical supervision, and, most importantly, to her direct client work. Harron has lectured at facilities such as Temple and George Washington University (where she is also serving as associate clinical faculty). She lives in Virginia with her husband and daughter, where she is an avid knitter and hiker.
