About Dana
Dana Piergiovanni is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 12 years of experience. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship and parenting concerns, depression, anger, and coping with life changes.
Dana uses straightforward, practical methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thinking patterns and try different responses. She also uses client-centered and solution-focused ideas to keep sessions goal-oriented and respectful of each person’s pace.
In sessions she focuses on clear steps and small experiments people can try between meetings. She talks through specific problems, helps set short-term goals, and reviews what did or did not work on the next visit.
Dana explains interventions in everyday language and keeps discussion practical. People who see her can expect direct work on patterns that maintain distress and concrete strategies to change them.
How Dana Uses Practical Approaches in Online Sessions
Online sessions use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. CBT sessions focus on specific thoughts and actions, and include short experiments to try between meetings to see what changes. Client-centered work gives space for the person to lead topics while the counselor listens and reflects to clarify concerns. Solution-focused therapy concentrates on concrete goals and the next steps that move someone toward those goals.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Dana will discuss needs, goals, and preferences and recommend which methods to try first. Together they review progress and adjust the plan as needed so the work stays focused and practical.

Licensed professionals can use online sessions to keep momentum between in-person visits or to provide consistent weekly support when meeting in person is difficult.
