About Dana
Dr. Dana Scoville is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 23 years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, self-esteem, life changes, LGBT issues, family concerns, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related problems, career questions, depression, and compassion fatigue.
She takes a practical, skills-focused approach. Sessions focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and habits, building coping skills, and trying new ways of responding to difficult situations. She treats mental health as something that sits on a spectrum and helps people identify where they are and what small shifts could move them toward better functioning.
Dr. Scoville draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. She uses techniques from those approaches to help clients practice new behaviors, observe thoughts without acting on them, and set concrete, achievable goals.
She encourages lifestyle adjustments that support steady progress rather than quick fixes. In sessions she will talk through strengths, values, and daily routines and help people build realistic plans they can use between appointments.
Dr. Scoville offers services in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How her approaches work for online sessions
Dr. Scoville commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in her work. CBT looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches straightforward skills for changing patterns that keep problems going. ACT focuses on identifying values and taking committed action toward those values, while learning to notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck in them.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss your needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. Decisions about techniques and pacing are collaborative and can be adjusted as progress is made.
The biography does not list which online session formats are used, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into daily life - for example, shorter check-ins can work around a break at work, and not needing to travel can save time. Online sessions also let people practice skills in their usual environments and bring real-life examples directly into appointments, which supports applying new behaviors between meetings.
