About Dana
Dana O'Neill is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with nine years of experience in clinical settings. She works with adults on common struggles such as anxiety, anger, relationship strain, self-esteem, and life changes. Sessions focus on practical skills and clearer thinking rather than labels or long talks about the past.
Dana draws on client-centered methods to keep the work grounded in each person's priorities. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to help people regulate strong emotions and improve how they relate to others. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used to spot thinking patterns that feed frustration and get in the way of goals.
Many people come to her feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from their sense of purpose. She helps them identify small, achievable steps that make daily life feel more manageable. Practices that connect the mind and body are part of her approach, so clients learn to notice physical signals and respond differently to stress.
Dana has experience across community, residential, and private practice settings. That variety shaped a practical style that focuses on skills you can use between sessions. She combines mindfulness exercises, behavioral strategies, and motivational techniques to support progress toward clearer values and better relationships.
Her work emphasizes learning to recognize emotions, tolerate difficult moments, and act toward chosen goals. Clients who want to manage anger, reduce anxiety, or rebuild self-worth will find structured tools and plain talk about next steps.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on what matters to the individual and on building a collaborative relationship. It helps people set goals and work at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems active, offering practical exercises to reduce reactivity and improve coping. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer interpersonal communication.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Dana will discuss goals and preferences in early sessions and suggest which skills to prioritize. The plan can change as progress is made, and clients are invited to give feedback so the work stays useful and focused.
Session formats should be confirmed before booking since no specific formats are listed here. Please check the current options when you select a therapist. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - it can shorten commute time, allow a quicker check-in during a break, or remove the need to be on camera if that helps someone focus. These practical benefits help people practice skills in real situations and apply strategies between meetings.
