About Dana
She is a Florida licensed mental health counselor, LMHC, with 23 years of experience. Dana views mental health as a continuum rather than a yes-or-no state. In sessions she helps clients identify where they are on that continuum and what small shifts could move them toward better functioning.
Her approach pulls from several evidence-informed methods, including acceptance and commitment ideas, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and solution-focused strategies. She emphasizes simple lifestyle changes alongside thought and behavior work to create lasting improvements.
In practical terms Dana works with people to set realistic goals, try experiments between sessions, and develop habits that support well-being. She avoids quick fixes and instead focuses on steady progress that fits each person's life and abilities.
Many clients use therapy to address stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, compassion fatigue, and career issues. Dana aims to help people create a sustainable plan that fits their daily routines and long-term priorities.

Online approaches that fit your work and life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck on them. It focuses on clarifying values and taking actions that matter, which can help with career choices and coping with change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical exercises to reduce unhelpful thinking and behavior, often helping with anxiety and depressive symptoms.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences and recommend methods that match your needs. Decisions about which techniques to try are made collaboratively and can adapt over time as progress is tracked.
Confirm the specific online session options before booking since the biography does not list formats. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, because they reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins during a workday. Online work also makes it simpler to practice skills in real-life contexts, try behavioral experiments between sessions, and maintain continuity during life transitions. Licensed professionals can tailor session pace and homework to fit your daily routine so therapy supports both short-term problems and longer-term career goals.
