Meet Our Team Members

Valerie D.

I came to Vital Decisions in February 2016. I enjoy being able to reach individuals and families across the nation and being able to provide them with a space to remain in control of their health decisions.  My hope is that I am able to connect with you to provide a safe space for you to think and talk through Advance Care Planning and help you feel empowered while you are managing your complex illness. I earned my Master’s of Social Service degree with a focus on clinical Social Work from Bryn Mawr College Graduate School of Social Work and Social Research. Prior to joining Vital Decisions, I gained several years of experience working in residential treatment, child welfare, and outpatient therapy programs as a supervisor, therapist, and case manager.
