Hi there, I'm Dina!
I've been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 30 years. I graduated with a bachelor's degree from University of California Los Angeles and my Master of Social Work at University of Southern California. I'm naturally curious and believe empowering others to foster connection is central to healing.
My focus
I have a wide range of experience and have successfully helped adults of all ages with issues of depression, anxiety, grief, life transitions, stress, and trauma. I believe my job is to help navigate the obstacles that stand in the way of you reaching your goals.
My approach
Central to my practice are the principles of authenticity, compassion, curiosity, and equality. Clients are empowered to challenge limiting beliefs, embrace self-forgiveness and self-compassion, and reframe their personal narratives to become both the author and main character of their own stories.
