About Dana

Dana Wogahn is a licensed clinical social worker in California with five years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people manage anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship strain, stress, low self-esteem, and issues related to family life and LGBT concerns. Dana aims to meet each person where they are and respond to what matters most in their daily life.

She uses a client-centered style that keeps the person's goals in focus.

Background and approach

Sessions are shaped by the client's feedback, so the plan can change as needs evolve. Some people ask for straightforward suggestions. Others prefer time to talk and be heard.

Dana offers both options and works to balance them. In practice she listens first, then helps people try new ways of coping. That might mean testing small behavior changes, practicing ways to manage strong feelings, or looking at how past experiences affect present reactions.

The work is practical and grounded in everyday steps rather than abstract theory. Dana describes therapy as a partnership. She invites input about what is working and what is not.

If something in a session isn’t helpful, she adjusts the approach so sessions stay useful and relevant. Her background as a licensed clinical social worker - LCSW - means she brings social work perspectives to care. Sessions are offered in English and are available through online formats that fit different schedules and needs.

Online support

Approaches and online care that adapt to you

Dana practices evidence-based therapeutic techniques in a way that is easy to follow. One approach focuses on practical coping skills to manage anxiety and stress, teaching simple strategies people can use day to day to reduce overwhelm and build calm. Another approach looks at how past trauma or painful experiences affect current reactions, helping people notice patterns, process difficult memories, and try different responses when those patterns show up.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide what helps most, adjusting methods based on goals, preferences, and how someone responds to sessions. This way the plan stays useful and grounded in what the person actually needs.

Online therapy offers flexibility so people can fit sessions into busy lives. Video calls let the therapist and client work face to face. Phone sessions can be a good choice when bandwidth or being on camera is an issue. Live chat or text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, keeping momentum between sessions, or when writing out thoughts feels easier. These options make it simpler to get ongoing support without major schedule changes.
