How I can help

Also: family counseling, counseling for teenagers, and online sessions for Connecticut and Florida residents.

Pre & postpartum counseling

A new baby brings joy. It can bring a lot more.

About me

Hi, I'm Dana.

My style is warm, collaborative and thoughtful. I'm direct but not directive: I'll openly share my thoughts and ideas with you, but I won't tell you what to do.

My work focuses on understanding how you act, think and feel today in the context of your past experiences. I believe people are uniquely shaped by their early relationships, especially family relationships, and by what life brings after.

  • Licensed Professional Counselor (CT) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (FL)
  • M.S. in Mental Health Counseling, Florida Atlantic University
  • B.A. in Psychology, University of Miami
  • Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy Course, Florida Psychoanalytic Institute
