Therapeutic approaches and online care
Many clients find clear, actionable tools helpful. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and trying new behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood. It is useful for stress, worry, and depression.Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, respect, and the client’s own goals. The therapist follows the person’s pace and supports them in naming what matters most. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus during stressful moments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dana will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts techniques based on what helps most.
