More about Dina
- 13 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I have extensive expertise in helping clients with anxiety, depression, panic, relationship issues, fertility struggles, and postpartum depression.
I use a positive, solution-focused approach with clients, based on the idea that they already possess many tools for self-healing and greater life satisfaction. Using a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and Psychodynamic treatment depending on what the individual needs.
I view treatment as a team approach with clients, focusing on the goals while at the same time, creating a warm, caring, and safe environment. I never tire of hearing people’s stories and am endlessly motivated to gain a deeper understanding of behavior and relationship dynamics.
