About

Dona Caine-Francis

As a certified sex therapist, individual and couples counselor, and psychiatric nurse practitioner, I have over 40 years of clinical and therapy experience helping individuals with a variety of emotional and sexual issues. These include grief, anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem, relationship problems, menopause, and sexual health. 

 

Early in my career, I worked as a critical care and emergency nurse. After a number of years working in a hospital setting, I decided that a master’s degree in psychiatric nursing was the next frontier and that led to private practice and the opportunity to touch so many lives in my many years of private practice.
