Approach-Focused Care Delivered Online

Dana uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, empathetic space where the client’s priorities guide the work - this approach helps people explore values, build insight, and make changes at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and teach practical skills for reducing anxiety, improving mood, and managing stress. Mindfulness therapy is incorporated to teach present-focused awareness and stress-reduction techniques that support emotional regulation and improved sleep.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Dana will work with each person to assess goals, preferences, and the specific issues they bring, adjusting techniques over time to find the best fit for progress and comfort.

Online therapy with Dana is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and needs.
