Hi — I’m Dana. Let’s skip the polished bio.
I’m not here to tell you I’ve got it all figured out. I’m here because I’ve been where you are, overthinking, overdoing, trying to hold it all together. Therapy changed the way I meet myself, and now that’s what I help others do too.
Before I ever trained as a therapist, I sat in the client’s chair. That experience shaped everything about how I work. I know what it’s like to feel unsure, to question whether therapy will even work for you. My role isn’t to fix or judge, it’s to walk alongside you while we figure things out together.
I believe therapy should feel like a conversation that makes sense, not a mystery you have to decode.
My approach is integrative, which means I draw from several models — Person-Centred, Transactional Analysis, Gestalt, Hypnosis, Psychoanalitic insights and CBT-informed approaches— depending on what fits you, your pace, and your goals.
I’m honest and clear, but always compassionate. I value real connection over formality, and I believe lasting change comes from understanding yourself, not forcing yourself to change.
In line with UKCP ethical guidance, I do not use client testimonials.
The therapeutic relationship involves an inherent power imbalance, and I want to ensure that no client feels pressured to evaluate their experience or share personal details publicly.
Therapy is also a deeply individual process, and each person’s experience will be unique, shaped by their own history, needs, and pace. For this reason, testimonials are not a reliable reflection of what your own therapeutic journey might look like.
Instead, I focus on being transparent about how I work, my training, and the values that guide my practice, so you can decide whether working together feels right for you.
