About Dana
Dana Cila is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in Florida. She has three years of professional experience and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and depression. Dana also supports those dealing with relationship strain, family conflict, low self-esteem, career concerns, and postpartum depression.
Her approach is down-to-earth and respectful. She listens first and adapts conversations to each person's needs. Sessions are meant to feel practical and straightforward, not full of jargon.
Background and approach
Dana often uses client-centered work to build a trusting relationship. That means the person sets the pace and she follows, offering input that fits the individual. She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, helping people notice unhelpful patterns and try clearer ways of thinking and acting.
In sessions Dana focuses on small, doable steps. She helps clients practice skills they can use between meetings, such as breathing techniques, thought records, and goal-setting. Progress is tracked in ways that reflect each person's priorities.
Starting therapy with Dana begins with a brief matching process and scheduling. She approaches new clients with patience and aims to create a plan that feels achievable. Many people come for short-term support or longer work depending on their goals.

How Dana Uses Client-Centered and CBT Online
Client-centered work means the therapist follows the person's lead and creates space for what matters most to them. Dana uses this approach to build trust, hear what you want to change, and shape sessions around your priorities. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that get in the way and practicing different responses. It is useful for anxiety, anger, low mood, and changing habits that interfere with daily life.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Dana will discuss goals and preferences with each person and try methods that fit their situation. Over time she adjusts the focus based on what is working and what feels helpful, so therapy stays practical and goal-oriented.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for deeper conversations and seeing nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for quick check-ins, skill coaching, or keeping momentum between longer sessions. These options make it easier to schedule care around work, family, and daily life.
