  This presentation will provide information that every mental health provider needs to know about Lyme disease - what it is, how it presents, and the issues that face patients and their families -- as well as the co- infections that can make a miserable disease even worse. The presenter will talk about her experience working with clients who came in with "typical" mental health symptoms only to be subsequently diagnosed with Lyme disease and at least one co-infection.

As a clinician, it is imperative that you familiarize yourself with this disease because you may have already been "introduced." The Virginia Health Department recently issued statistics revealing that one in six Loudoun County families is directly affected by Lyme disease.
 
 
Edythe (Dee) Dunn, MA, LPC, NCC earned her MA in Psychology in 1984 and has covered a lot of ground since then - with experience across inpatient, residential and outpatient settings, through a myriad of theoretical perspectives. She has 12 years in private practice in Leesburg, VA, where she works with individuals, parent/teens, and couples. Dee became well versed in Lyme Disease and co-infections for personal and professional reasons, and is specifically interested in the connection between the mind and Immune system. She is currently working toward certification in Hypnosis with the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis.
 
 
  As part of our networking opportunities, we invite all members to bring their business cards and marketing materials to display.
