About Dana
Dr. Dana Scoville is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 23 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, trauma and related difficulties. She works with clients around career strain, self-esteem, compassion fatigue, LGBT issues and broader family or life-change challenges. Sessions are conducted in English, and she accepts international clients.
Dr. Scoville uses practical, skills-based approaches rather than quick fixes. She focuses on strengths and building resilience so people can cope better with change. Her work leans on methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness practices and solution-focused techniques.
In sessions she helps people spot what they can influence and what is outside their control. That distinction guides decisions about where to put energy and which actions to try. She also frames mental health as a spectrum and assists clients in moving toward better day-to-day functioning through steady, realistic changes.
Her process includes reviewing routines and lifestyle factors that affect mood and stress. Together with a client she identifies small, manageable steps and practices to test between appointments. The aim is to increase practical coping skills and reduce distress over time.
Dr. Scoville asks clients to reflect on goals and values, then links therapeutic tools to those aims. She encourages methods that fit a person’s schedule and capabilities so changes are sustainable rather than brief fixes. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters and take small steps toward those values while learning to live with uncomfortable thoughts and feelings. In practice this can mean setting value-based goals and practicing short exercises between meetings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns through practical tasks and skill building. Typical CBT work includes tracking thoughts, testing assumptions, and trying different coping strategies to see what helps.Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist works with each person to match methods to their goals, preferences, and daily demands. Early sessions usually include a brief review of what a person is hoping to change and trialing techniques to see what fits.
