My name is Mia Dorman and I am a Therapist/ Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes that if you do the work on yourself you can build the resiliency to live the life that you desire. I am licensed in Delaware Pennsylvania and Maryland. My philosophy is that I live to RESTORE HOPE in people especially my clients. The word HOPE is filled with having the expectation of finding out what you want out of life or of bringing back what has inspired you to achieve your goals in the past.

My therapeutic style is to ask a lot of questions and really try to find the answers to what is bothering you. In our sessions, you will cry, laugh, talk excessively or talk a little.

Bring your patience and your strength. We will be together and I will support you when you are feeling weak. Usually, I see what makes you special first. You will need to tell me what is wrong.

Hi! I have been in the therapy field for over 18 years, working with individuals and families in both outpatient, group, and residential settings.
