Dana Oxendale, MA, LMFT

Experience:  Since 2012 I have worked in various settings including a partial hospitalization program, a short-term crisis shelter, and managing teams in large mental health clinic systems.

I am humbled and honored to bear witness to your story and will gently hold it with utmost respect and care. I believe you are the expert on you and I can help to bring fresh perspectives. We will collaborate as you explore new and healthier ways of engaging with loved ones and create a brighter way of seeing yourself and the world.

Therapeutic style: I am creative, curious, non judgmental, humorous, and compassionate. I am not a “head-nodder”. I will listen quietly and intently when needed and at times I will also add challenging thoughts to help move you forward.
