01About Dana

Dana Vander Veen is a licensed clinician in Maryland with nine years of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. She brings care and compassion into sessions and focuses on supporting people who want to feel more connected and steady in day-to-day life.

She approaches each person as a whole - mind, body, and spirit - and looks at how those parts affect overall satisfaction.

Background and approach

Sessions aim to be a calm place to talk through painful memories, manage overwhelming feelings, or build steadier coping skills. The tone is supportive and nonjudgmental, and the therapist encourages honest conversation about what is most difficult right now. Dana works with common patterns such as attachment struggles, codependency, body image concerns, and feelings of emptiness.

She also helps with family of origin issues, communication and control problems, and eating or food-related concerns. Practical coping strategies and clearer understanding of relationship patterns are frequent focuses. The work often includes examining how past wounds shape current behavior and building small, manageable changes that improve daily functioning.

Clients are invited to set goals and try approaches that fit their values and lifestyle. The therapist emphasizes empowerment and steady progress rather than quick fixes. Sessions are conducted in English and Dana accepts international clients.

04Online support

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are part of Dana's work, often focusing on approaches that help people process trauma and reduce anxiety. One commonly used technique helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop more balanced ways of thinking to reduce worry and low mood. Another element focuses on processing painful memories and building tolerable ways to experience and move through strong emotions after abuse or loss.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. Together they set priorities and try techniques that fit the person’s rhythm and life circumstances rather than imposing a single method.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the specific session formats available before booking since formats were not listed in the biography. Many people find online work helpful because it can make scheduling easier, cut travel time, and allow more consistent check-ins during busy weeks. Some formats are also better suited to shorter check-ins or to people who prefer not to be on camera, so discussing options with the therapist can help pick what will fit daily life.
