About Dana


Sometimes we find ourselves feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from who we want to be, often without fully understanding why. Past experiences, relationships, and the expectations we carry can shape how we see ourselves and how we move through the world. I believe therapy offers a space to slow down and make sense of these experiences, without judgment. Working together, I can help you explore what may be present beneath the surface, understand where certain patterns may have come from, and find new ways of moving forward that feel more aligned with who you are.


I offer a warm, collaborative, and non-judgmental space where we can explore your emotions, relationships, and the patterns shaping your life. I draw from person-centred, attachment-based, cognitive-behavioural, and trauma-informed approaches, tailoring therapy to your unique needs, experiences, culture, and goals.


For more information on how I approach therapy, feel free to keep reading. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our Admin team, using the links at the top of this page. You can also book a session or a free 15-minute phone consultation with me, using the links under my photo. Even if you and I are not the right fit, I would be happy to help you find the right therapist for you.


Therapy with Dana


Therapy with me is conversational, collaborative, and guided by curiosity. I’ll take the time to understand your story and what matters to you, while gently encouraging you to look beneath the surface. You can expect warmth and compassion alongside thoughtful questions that invite deeper reflection, new perspectives, and meaningful change.


Dana’s Story


My path toward becoming a therapist began with my sense of curiosity about people, and about how our experiences shape the way we think, feel, relate to others, and understand ourselves. I first explored this curiosity through my undergraduate studies in Neuroscience and Mental Health, but over time, I became increasingly drawn to understanding the person themselves,  beyond any symptoms or diagnoses. This led me to pursue graduate training in Counselling Psychology and Psychotherapy.



My approach is grounded in the belief that people make sense within the context of their experiences, relationships, culture, and the environments that have shaped them. As a therapist, I hope to create the kind of space where you can feel genuinely heard, become curious about yourself without judgment, and develop a deeper understanding of who you are and how you want to move forward.
