How Dana works
Sessions are focused on skills people can use between meetings. Her background includes work in school settings and collaboration with educators on plans for students. That experience shaped her interest in attention concerns, mood disorders, and emotional regulation.
She also brings insight from parenting children with attention challenges and from writing behavior and education plans. Dana uses cognitive behavioral tools to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking. She also draws on client-centered work to keep sessions focused on each person’s goals.
Dialectical behavior ideas and mindfulness practices are used when people need tools for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. People who choose Dana get practical strategies, movement and breathing options, and straightforward coaching toward clearer routines and goals. She aims to help people build skills, increase self-understanding, and gain steadier day-to-day coping.
The work is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

How Dana’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and collaboration. Sessions prioritize each person’s goals and pace, and the therapist aims to reflect understanding and help clients make choices that fit their lives. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical tools to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and mood management. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers skills for managing intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with mood swings and coping in stressful moments.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist reviews needs, goals, and preferences and adjusts the mix of strategies over time. That collaborative process helps make sure sessions feel useful and focused on real-life improvements.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can be simpler when a camera isn’t needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for shorter check-ins, brief skill coaching, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to continue work between sessions.
