About Dana

She holds both a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist credential and a Licensed Professional Counselor credential.

How Dana works

Young adult issues are also a particular focus. Dana aims to work at a pace that feels manageable for each person. Her approach blends Cognitive Behavioral ideas with Solution-Focused and family systems thinking.

That combination means sessions may include practical behavior strategies, focused problem-solving, and attention to patterns in family relationships. The goal is to build useful skills and clearer perspectives, not to overwhelm the person seeking help. Dana describes her style as warm, respectful, and hands-on.

She looks for strengths to build on and helps people set realistic steps toward change. When clients want to include a spiritual or biblical viewpoint, she can incorporate that into sessions as requested. New clients start with a short matching questionnaire and schedule appointments based on availability.

Sessions are offered in several online formats to fit different needs and routines.

Online support options

Practical approaches for online therapy

Dana integrates Cognitive Behavioral techniques and Solution-Focused methods to guide online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try clearer, more effective behaviors; it suits issues like low self-esteem, anger, and everyday coping. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, concrete steps toward a chosen goal and can speed up progress when someone wants targeted change.

She also brings a family systems perspective that looks at how patterns between people affect current problems and strengths. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then try strategies that fit those needs and adapt them as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video can support deeper conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well for shorter check-ins or lower bandwidth, and chat or text can be useful for quick updates or when writing feels easier. These options help people fit therapy into work, school, or family life and make it easier to keep momentum between sessions.
