About Dina
As a dedicated and compassionate person, I am committed to making a positive impact on people’s lives. I am a firm believer in the power of empathy and active listening. I understand that each person’s struggles are unique, and I am dedicated to creating a safe and non-judgmental space for clients to explore their thoughts and emotions. I believe that the most profound human connections are built upon empathy, trust, and a sincere desire to help others. My approach to therapy is integrative, drawing from various techniques to tailor treatment plans to the specific needs of each client.
I have witnessed the transformative impact of a therapeutic relationship built on trust and mutual respect, as both a therapist and a client. As such, I am committed to fostering this environment in my practice. Moreover, I believe that self-awareness is a fundamental quality for any psychotherapist. My own personal growth journey and the challenges I have faced in life have deepened my understanding of the human experience and the importance of resilience. I aim to use these experiences to connect with my clients on a more personal level and provide them with hope and support in their own journeys.
I invite you to reach out to me, not just as a therapist but as a compassionate and empathetic guide on your path to healing and self-discovery. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to book a session or a free 15-minute phone consultation using the links on this page. I’m looking forward to our journey together!
