Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support



Dana integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, and client-centred principles into her online practice. ACT focuses on helping people clarify their values and develop practical ways to act in line with what matters to them, which can support work with anxiety, low motivation, and difficult emotions. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to early relationship patterns and how they influence current connections and emotional responses, making it useful for relationship concerns, abandonment worries, and attachment difficulties. Client-centred therapy emphasises empathic listening and the client’s own resources, creating space for increased self-understanding and self-compassion.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Dana works collaboratively with each person to identify methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She draws on assessment and ongoing dialogue to tailor sessions rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.

Online therapy with Dana is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier for people to access licensed professionals from varied locations and to continue work consistently while balancing daily life.
