Who Are Genetic Counselors and How Can They Help Me?

Did you know there are over 5,000 genetic counselors across the U.S. and Canada, but most people have no idea we exist or what we do? Let’s change that.

Hi! I’m Dena Goldberg, MS, CGC, a board-certified genetic counselor and the founder of Malibu Genetics Concierge. I’ve spent the last 10 years helping people understand their genetic risk for disease, navigate complex family histories, and figure out what to actually do with their DNA results. You might know me from Instagram or TikTok, and now I’m bringing the conversation to YouTube.
