About Dylan

LMFT (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist) with three years of clinical experience, Dylan Perese focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. Dylan writes in plain terms and works with people who want space to include spiritual or existential concerns in therapy. Sessions include talking, skills practice, and reflective tasks such as journaling between meetings. He works with English-speaking adults in California.

Dylan blends several practical approaches in session. He uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify values and take committed action. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) strategies for managing difficult emotions and building coping skills. The Gottman Method is part of his work on communication and relationship patterns.

He offers a client-centered stance that prioritizes the person's perspective and experience. That means sessions are conversational and directed by what the person brings each week. Dylan also makes room to discuss spiritual beliefs, intuitive experiences, or questions about meaning when clients want that included.

Between sessions he commonly recommends journaling to track mood, notice patterns, and practice new skills. He frames homework as short, practical steps rather than long assignments. People who come to him for relationship or communication concerns can expect concrete skill-building alongside reflective discussion.

Dylan practices in California as an LMFT and provides services in English. He does not accept international clients. To begin, people use the site's matching steps and schedule an initial session.

Therapeutic approaches used in remote sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking small actions that align with those values. It helps when anxiety or life changes make it hard to move forward. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) addresses the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors by teaching practical strategies to shift unhelpful thinking and habits. This is often used for anxiety, mood concerns, and coping skills. The Gottman Method centers on communication patterns and concrete relationship skills to reduce conflict and improve dialogue.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Dylan will work with the person to identify which methods fit their goals and preferences, and will adjust strategies over time based on what helps. The initial sessions typically include assessment, goal-setting, and trying a few concrete techniques.

The original biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work or caregiving schedules, reduce travel time, or allow check-ins from another location. Remote sessions also support using written exercises and screen-shared resources during a meeting. Ask about available formats when scheduling to match session logistics to daily routines.
