Are you looking for a Child Psychologist for your child or teen?

My name is Dr. Dana. I am a Licensed Psychologist trained as a School Psychologist specializing in children, adolescents, and families ❤️ I am also a busy mom to an adorable six-year-old little girl and sweet ten-year-old boy 🥰

In August 2021, I opened a private practice on the bottom level of a quaint little house 🏡 on Allegheny Avenue in the heart of Towson ❤️ and I have loved being in private practice the past 8 years 🙌🏻

Being a Child Psychologist has been my dream since I was a Junior at Fallston High School 🧡. I have always loved working with children and started my career as a Nanny with families in the Towson area while attending Towson University as an undergraduate student studying Psychology and Criminal Justice.

In 2002, I got my first job at Johns Hopkins University as a Research Interviewer conducting mental health interviews with high school students in Baltimore City Public Schools.

I continued to work with Johns Hopkins University and colleagues for 16 years implementing evidence-based interventions with children, adolescents, parents, teachers & other school staff.

Along the way, I obtained a Ph.D. and Master’s Degree in School Psychology from the University of Missouri as well as a Master’s Degree in Clinical Community Counseling from Johns Hopkins University.

I specialize in...

- Anxiety/Stress
- Academic/Learning problems
- ADHD/Attention Problems
- Anger/Emotion Regulation
- Behavior Problems
- Depression/Grief
- Parenting/Co-parenting
- Bullying/Relational Aggression
- Social Skills

*Please note that I am an out-of-network provider and do not participate with any insurance companies. However, I provide my families with an invoice that they can submit to their insurance company for reimbursement.

If you are interested in scheduling a session or have questions, please text Dr. Dana @ 443-807-0886 ☀️

About Me: “Dr. Dana”

Hi! My name is Dr. Dana Marchese. I am a mother, wife, daughter, sister, aunt, niece, friend, and licensed psychologist who grew up here in Harford County, Maryland.

Similar to many of you who are reading this, I am “juggling many balls in the air” everyday as a busy working parent and trying to live my best life. While my life is not perfect, I strive to constantly “know better, do better” and have a lot of FUN along the way!

For the past 16 years, I have been working with Johns Hopkins University and colleagues implementing evidence-based interventions with children/adolescents, parents, teachers and other school staff. I have provided services to children and their families in school, clinic, residential treatment, university, and community settings, and family’s homes. I have experience working in suburban, urban/disadvantaged, and rural schools in Baltimore, Anne Arundel, Prince George’s, and Harford Counties, Baltimore City, as well as school districts in Missouri, Montana, and California.

Recently I joined a private practice, Dr. Michelle Sun & Associates, in Towson across from the Towson Town Center on Dulaney Valley Road. I am passionate about working with children/adolescents and their families to provide comprehensive services to support and promote their mental health, behavior, academic, and social-emotional needs so ALL children/adolescents can learn, be successful in school, and flourish in life!
