About Dima

Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Jersey with 10 years of experience, Dima Vicital helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting challenges using practical therapeutic approaches. She combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness, and trauma-focused methods to address mood, trauma, and relationship concerns. Sessions are aimed at building coping skills and clearer thinking rather than relying on jargon.

Dima works with adults to untangle repetitive patterns that cause frustration or exhaustion. She pays attention to issues like ADHD, addictions, grief, and anger so people can regain routine and control. She also supports people facing infertility, pregnancy and childbirth concerns, and the emotional effects of traumatic brain injury.

Her style is collaborative and skills-focused. Clients practice concrete strategies in session and build plans to use between appointments. Techniques include thought records, emotion regulation skills, grounding and exposure exercises when appropriate.

She has experience with family problems, attachment issues, and Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder (DMDD) concerns as they affect individuals. Dima also addresses obsessive-compulsive symptoms, social phobia, self-harm behaviors, guilt and shame, and multicultural issues that affect emotional well-being.

Practical matters are discussed early in the work, including goals, what to try first, and how progress will be assessed. People who are weighing therapy find this grounded, step-by-step approach useful for moving through life changes and improving day-to-day functioning.

How key approaches are used in online sessions

CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real life. In practice this means creating simple exercises and thought records to try between sessions, which helps with anxiety, depression, and problem-focused goals.

DBT provides clear skills for regulating strong emotions and reducing impulsive behaviors. Online sessions may include coaching on emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness to manage anger, self-harm urges, or relationship stress.

Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and grounding skills. These practices can reduce reactivity and improve concentration, useful for stress, ADHD symptoms, and coping after trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, test techniques, and adapt methods based on the client’s needs and preferences. That collaboration helps decide which skills to prioritize and how to pace the work.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Therapists can assign brief between-session exercises and follow up on skill practice to help progress between meetings.
