Ronnie Dann-Honor, LMFT

Therapy

My life started in the City of Chicago, Il, but after getting married, my husband and four small children relocated to Southern CA due to a job transfer. We had two more children and I was a stay-at-home mother for 14 years before I entered college. I worked part-time for 10 years while I earned my masters degree in Psychology Counseling with a focus on Gerontology. I enjoy being productive. I have ran 5 marathons in California and in Washington, D.C. I love and enjoy all kinds of people and activities. Blessed and grateful. I want to continue to help others. i can be found at MDtherapists.com

I have been fortunate enough to work in a number of areas of mental health. I have worked in the schools, substance abuse facilities, psychiatric hospitals, IOP, crisis work, and private practice.
