The consult is for your patient. The call button is for you. More practice details

I welcome referrals when a patient needs focused support with desire, sexual pain, or changes in sexual function, and with the emotional and relationship strain that can come with them. Choose your field below for referral guidance and handouts to print.

I also see adults for ADHD and autism, relationships and dating, and gender-affirming therapy, and I write letters for gender-affirming medical care.

Other referrals I take

Tandem care, not a hand-off

With your patient’s permission, I coordinate with you so both plans support each other.

A first conversation can simply be about whether a referral might fit. Please wait to send records or identifying details until we’ve set up a secure way to share them.

To refer

Your patient requests a free 15-minute consult at JosephMaronLPC.com. Or call 215-804-9315. Want to talk a referral through first? Call me at the same number.
