About Dana

LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with 13 years of experience. Dana Spigener helps people address addictions, relationship strain, anger, low self-esteem, and major life changes. He also focuses on attachment concerns, caregiver stress, communication problems, control issues, guilt and shame, and mood and anxiety disorders. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted.

Dana keeps sessions straightforward and practical. He listens to the problem you bring and works with you to set clear goals. Conversations focus on identifying patterns, building coping skills, and trying small changes that can reduce stress and improve how you relate to others.

His background includes over a decade working with people facing addiction, panic and trauma-related symptoms, social anxiety, and challenges tied to life purpose and isolation. Dana draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address both immediate symptoms and longer-term patterns. He explains options and checks in about what’s working as treatment progresses.

Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Cost varies by location. To begin, select the See online therapy options button, complete the short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session. Confirm current session arrangements before booking.

Dana aims for clear, practical conversations rather than jargon. He helps people talk through behaviors, practice new responses, and manage the day-to-day strain of caregiving, grief, or recovery from addictive behaviors. Expect a collaborative approach that focuses on usable steps and measurable change.

How his therapeutic approaches are used in online work

Evidence-based techniques are central to his practice. One approach focuses on skill building for emotion regulation and coping. This involves teaching practical tools to manage anger, panic symptoms, and intense moods so daily functioning becomes easier. Another approach targets behavioral patterns tied to addiction and relationship problems. It looks at triggers, routines, and consequences, and uses step-by-step changes to reduce harmful behaviors and improve interaction with others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will discuss options and adjust methods based on the client’s goals, needs, and preferences. This is collaborative: the client and therapist evaluate what helps and change direction when needed.

Confirm session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when a full appointment is hard to schedule. Talk with him during the matching process about what structure best fits your routine and technical constraints.
