More about Dana

  • 4 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

I am an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist accredited in the UK, and I use a blend of person-centred therapy, attachment theory and CBT in my practice. I have worked with a wide range of concerns including stress and anxiety, low-mood and depression, relationship concerns, identity, gender, disordered eating and lack of motivation. I also have supported clients who have experienced historical trauma and attachment disorders.

I strive to create a safe and non-judgemental therapeutic space, and provide empathy, compassion and empowerment. I tailor each session individually to your needs, and will collaboratively develop therapeutic goals to support you in finding direction and increasing your understanding of yourself. I believe everyone is deserving of respect and understanding. I also have a special interest in eco-therapy, and integrating the wider environment into our understandings of ourselves.

Asking for help is an act of bravery, and I am here to support and help you move forward into a more authentic and fulfilled life.

I look forward to working with you!

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.
