ABOUT

Have you been diagnosed with an illness that has changed your life? You are not alone. I’m Gideon Javna, a licensed psychotherapist, and I been living with a chronic illness for over 25 years. I was diagnosed with Type One Diabetes at the age of 12 and it’s my goal to help people like us overcome the challenges that come with living with a chronic illness. 

I graduated with my MSW from Virginia Commonwealth University and with my BA in English Literature from Muhlenberg College.

I live in Richmond, Virginia with my wife, son, and two dogs. I enjoy hiking, traveling, and drinking coffee.
