Community-based
Dana can support folks wanting to explore, understand and feel comfortable in community spaces. This might include a neighbourhood “walk and talk” or meeting at a location (e.g. library or café) to support gentle de-sensitising to social stressors including being perceived.
Online
Dana offers Australia-wide video sessions over Google Meet or phone consults where video is not possible or not preferred. She also offers a unique text-based therapy for folks who find verbal speech not possible or not accessible. This may include folks with Situational Non-speaking (clinically called Selective Mutism) and folks using Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC).
