Hello, my name is Dina! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Professional Organizer, and Coach. I have been working in a variety of treatment settings for over 11 years. I am licensed in Georgia since 2014 and have been Certified in TeleMental health since 2015.
I have experience helping clients with stress/anxiety, parenting issues, overcoming depression & building resiliency. I also have experience working with couples and families. My approach is solution-focused with a heavy focus on your beliefs. I believe that you are the expert of your story and have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you.
As a single mother, I understand the many hats that women wear and the struggle to find balance. I have a passion for helping women find their "guilt-free true north" and move from surviving to thriving.
Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
