Dana O'Neill

Dana O'Neill is a licensed counselor who focuses on helping people rebuild self-worth and find clearer direction. She offers a down-to-earth approach aimed at improving mood, relationships, and work satisfaction. Many clients come with anxiety, stress, or feeling stuck in life and wanting practical steps forward.

Dana draws on client-centered work to keep conversations grounded in each person's goals. She uses cognitive techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and behavioral strategies to make small changes that add up. Mindfulness practices are woven into sessions to help people notice their bodies and emotions without judgment.

She has nine years of clinical experience in community, residential, and private practice settings. That background informs how she supports people dealing with grief, addiction-related struggles, eating and body-image concerns, and caregiver stress. Dana also helps people facing career crossroads and those looking to reconnect with their sense of purpose.

Sessions emphasize practical skills - emotion regulation, communication tools, and step-by-step plans for change. Dana invites clients to examine habits, try new behaviors, and notice what works in daily life. The work is collaborative and paced to each person's needs.

Her credentials include LCPC and LMHC and she practices in Florida. Sessions are conducted in English and geared toward adults seeking help with stress, relationships, career matters, and related concerns.

How Dana’s approaches work in online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the client. The therapist keeps the conversation focused on your goals and adjusts pace and tools to what feels useful. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps spot patterns of unhelpful thinking and replace them with testable, practical changes in behavior; it often helps with anxiety, low mood, and getting unstuck at work. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing intense emotions and improving how you relate to others, using short exercises and steady practice to build more control.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and day-to-day constraints, then try approaches that fit. This is a collaborative process where methods are adjusted based on what helps most.

The therapist's biography does not list specific online formats. Before booking, confirm which session types are offered. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time around work or caregiving. Online work can still include skills practice, thought exercises, and mindfulness practices adapted to real-life routines.
