About Dina
Dina Vineberg uses a person-centered approach to therapy. She brings warmth, compassion, and a touch of humor to sessions. Dina meets people where they are and helps them work through stress, anxiety, grief, relationship and intimacy questions, and life transitions.
She is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with six years of experience in clinical counseling roles. Dina has worked across many settings, including crisis and text lines, hospitals, adult care facilities, nonprofit agencies, foster care, and schools.
How Dina works
Those roles shaped her practical focus on helping people cope with depression, trauma, and major life changes. Dina pays close attention to loss and trauma. Personal experience with family loss to depression informs her sensitivity and determination to help others build resilience.
She aims to soften anxiety and confusion while supporting clients as they reclaim steadier footing in daily life. Her practice also addresses concerns such as bipolar mood challenges, self-esteem, career stress, hoarding behavior, hospice and end-of-life counseling, and non-monogamous relationship issues. Dina offers coaching-style support when clients want clearer next steps or goal-oriented work.
Outside of clinical work she is connected to nature and has long been involved in animal rescue. That personal background often shows up in conversations about values, caregiving, and finding meaning amid hardship. Dina welcomes hearing each person's story and working together to find realistic ways forward.

Online support options
Client-centered care delivered online
Dina practices Client-Centered Therapy in a way that focuses on the person's own experiences and goals. This approach is about listening closely, reflecting what you say, and helping you find your own answers. It is useful for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship questions, and rebuilding confidence after loss.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dina treats it as a collaborative process and will help identify what feels most useful based on your needs, goals, and preferences. Together you can try different ways of working and adjust the focus as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy schedules and varied needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when a quick check-in is wanted, live chat is useful for shorter back-and-forths, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to connect from different places and at times that fit daily life.
