About Dana
Dana Andrews is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety. She offers a calm, nonjudgmental presence and helps clients feel heard as they talk through difficult emotions and decisions. She uses straightforward, practical methods to address depression, self-esteem struggles, and low motivation.
Sessions often involve talking about immediate problems, spotting patterns that keep them stuck, and trying small, manageable changes between meetings. Dana also helps people facing relationship strain, intimacy-related concerns, and career questions.
Background and approach
She supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, bipolar mood challenges, ADHD, and life transitions by tailoring tools to each person's situation. Her work draws on client-centered listening alongside cognitive behavioral techniques and elements of dialectical behavior therapy and mindfulness. Motivational interviewing is used when someone wants more clarity on goals and how to stay motivated to reach them.
With ten years of practice and licensure as an LCSW in New York, Dana brings steady experience to common life stresses. Sessions are available in English and offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs.
Therapeutic options for online support
Client-centered therapy starts with careful listening and follows the client's lead. It helps people articulate what matters most to them and build goals that feel realistic. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and uses simple exercises to test and change unhelpful patterns; it is often useful for anxiety, stress, and depression.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try based on their goals, comfort level, and what feels most useful in early sessions. This is an ongoing conversation rather than a one-time decision.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into a busy life. Video allows for more face-to-face interaction, phone calls can be a good option when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging can work for quick check-ins or shorter conversations. These formats make it possible to keep regular momentum and try tools between meetings.
