Hi, I’m Dayna!

Licensed Therapist

We all have a story. I’m here to help you navigate yours and learn to live your life in a way that feels more connected and healthy.

 

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor and Mental Health Service Provider (LPC-S, MHSP), Registered Play Therapist-Supervisor (RPT-S), Certified EMDR Therapist and EMDRIA Approved Consultant in Training (CIT), and Certified TraumaPlay Therapist and Supervisor.    I have been working with children and their families for over 20 years.  I also provide supervision and consultation to therapists seeking licensure or certification.  

I am certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).  I love integrating EMDR with Play Therapy, and I also use this amazing therapy with adults.  Alongside my work with children and teens, I have a passion for helping women heal from their trauma and learn to live the healthy flourishing lifestyle they desire.

My personal and professional experiences have taught me that the most important key to working with children and teens is by nurturing and supporting their parents.  I work closely with parents helping to navigate through the difficulties of their family journey.  Many of the clients I work with come with traumatic experiences, and I find that these families often struggle with generations of trauma.  This can make parenting a child with big or scary behaviors very challenging and scary.  I understand that once parents have reached out to me, they have often reached out to multiple therapists seeking to find the one person who can help them.  

An important thing for you to know about me is that I am open up front.  

My biggest focus at this time is this: 

  1. To provide the most effective treatment services for my clients

  2. To provide a space for parents to feel connected and nurtured as they learn how to navigate their child/teen’s struggles

  3. To provide a place for women feel empowered to go after what they truly need to succeed.

Life is a vulnerable and oftentimes scary journey.  My goal is to provide a nurturing space for you or your family that helps enhance healing and growth towards the life you deserve and long for.
