Background and approach

Those roles shaped how she listens and responds to people in distress. Dina pays special attention to trauma and loss, and she draws on her personal experience with bereavement to connect with people who are coping with grief or ongoing anxiety. She also supports people dealing with career changes, self-esteem struggles, bipolar mood challenges, and the practical strain of life transitions.

Her additional interests include hoarding-related concerns, hospice and end-of-life conversations, and non-monogamous or polyamorous relationship dynamics. Dina aims to help people build resilience and move forward instead of letting hardships define them. Outside of work she enjoys spending time in nature and caring for rescued animals.

She welcomes people who want a respectful, attentive space to talk through problems and figure out next steps.

Client-centered care adapted for online sessions

Dina primarily uses client-centered therapy, which centers the conversation on the person's own goals and experiences. In this approach the therapist listens closely, mirrors what is said, and helps the person find their own solutions; it works well for anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, and self-esteem issues.

Her work also focuses on trauma and loss, attending to how past experiences affect current reactions. This emphasis helps when people carry persistent anxiety after difficult events and need steady, compassionate support to build resilience.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and happens together. Dina will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences, and then tailor sessions to match what feels most useful. The therapist adjusts pacing and methods as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more accessible. Video is useful for deeper conversations and for picking up nonverbal cues, phone works when bandwidth is limited, live chat and messaging suit short check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
