Gladys Duran, LCSW

Psychotherapist
VA
Hello! I am Gladys Duran, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Master of Education (M.Ed.) with 28 years of experience helping individuals navigate life's challenges, heal, and thrive. As the founder of **Pivotal Beginnings**, I provide 100% remote, secure telehealth therapy tailored to clients across Florida and Virginia. My practice is a safe, compassionate, and deeply affirming space. I specialize in individual therapy across the lifespan, working with teenagers (13–17), adults, and elders. Because I believe everyone deserves to be truly seen and respected, I am a dedicated advocate for the LGBTQ+ community—providing identity-affirming care for transgender, non-binary, and gender-fluid individuals—as well as specialized support for women. As a fully bilingual therapist, I am proud to offer therapy in both English and Spanish, ensuring you can express yourself in the language you feel most comfortable using. Whether you are navigating the pressures of school, balancing a demanding career, exploring your identity, or adjusting to a new chapter in retirement, we will work collaboratively at your pace. My goal is to help you safely process stressors, build resilient coping mechanisms, and move toward lasting healing.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider's self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan's benefits.
