You can expect straightforward feedback and tools to practice between meetings. The focus is on things that can change now, so progress feels tangible. People who reach out often want practical help, clearer decision making, or relief from intense feelings.

How Dana’s Approaches Translate to Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy is about following the person's lead and responding with empathy. In practice this means sessions focus on what matters most to you and move at a pace you can handle. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and tests small changes to see what helps. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood, anger, and practical coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dana will collaborate with you to choose methods that match your goals, needs, and preferences. She will check in and adjust the plan as you try new strategies so the therapy stays useful and relevant.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets you see nonverbal cues and have fuller conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or you need a quieter check-in. Live chat or text works for quick check-ins, brief reflections, or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family time, or busy days while keeping the focus on practical progress and problem solving.
