I’ve only been speaking to Dayana for a couple of weeks now and her insight and help has been amazing. She takes time to listen to things and help me navigate the world and my situation better. I can’t recommend her enough.

More about Dayana

  • LISW

I am a licensed independent Clinical Social worker in the state of Ohio (I.1303211). I have a bachelors degree in Psychology and Sociology and a masters degree in Clinical Social Work from the University of Cincinnati. I am a Board certified Clinical Social worker and a certified pupil services counselor.

I am an experienced mental health therapist. I have experience providing mental health services to individuals, couples, children and families.

My strong points as a counselor are being able to be a great listener and reading between the lines to understand my clients, I am able to refer them to evidence based resources to continue their education while not talking to me. I am a highly empathetic person and I do want the best treatment for my clients in order for them to meet their goals and be successful in their daily lives.

I do not focus on a client's diagnosis but on the specific person talking to me. I believe we can all achieve progress, does not matter where we start. Some of my specialties in therapy are; EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing), trauma focused therapy and CBT techniques. I enjoy developing treatment plans along with my clients, for an array of needs such as anger management, depression, post partum depression, anxiety, social anxiety, generalized anxiety, work related problems, parenting issues, life changes, grief, family relations problems, trauma, stress, step parenting and blended family.

About online counseling

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
