Dana is caring and thoughtful. There’s never been a time where I didn’t feel listened to or validated. I can tell she wants what’s best for me and she was quick to earn my trust which hasn’t been easy for other people in my life. She takes the time to check in and communicates effectively. From a professional standpoint I feel that she’s well versed in recent research, therapy techniques and continuing education. Overall, I feel that Dana is an excellent therapist and I’m lucky to have been paired with her.

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.
